Thank you to the thousands of people who took part in the Called to Bear Fruit Consultation. We are grateful to you all for sharing so openly your hopes for the life of the Church in our Archdiocese.
The consultation response, which includes 15 actions points for renewal, is available here and hardcopies will be sent to every parish. The consultation revealed a burning desire within our parishes to be missionary and evangelising disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, who work together to help people encounter His love.
So, as we move forward on the next steps together, let’s build up the Body of Christ in Southwark with faith and confidence, becoming ever more a community of missionary disciples filled with joy and hope for the future. As an Archdiocese, we will continue to discern the process of renewal, and further updates will be provided in due course.
