Year focuses on faith renewal

MADISON — Last October, Pope Benedict XVI released his apostolic letter Porta Fidei (“The Door of Faith”) announcing a Year of Faith to begin for the Universal Church this October 11, 2012, concluding on the Feast of Christ the King, November 24, 2013.
The primary aim Pope Benedict has for this special year is “to arouse in every believer the aspiration to profess the faith in fullness and with renewed conviction, with confidence and hope.”
Importance of the Catechism
To facilitate such a renewal, the Holy Father invited the faithful to make “a concerted effort to rediscover and study the fundamental content of the faith that receives its systematic and organic synthesis in the Catechism of the Catholic Church.”
Echoing Blessed John Paul II, Pope Benedict called the Catechism “one of the most important fruits” of the Second Vatican Council which “will make a very important contribution to that work of renewing the whole life of the Church.”
Encountering Christ
Within it, he tells us, “we find that what is presented here is no theory, but an encounter with a Person (Jesus Christ) who lives within the Church.”
Jesus Christ, true God and true man, who entered human history, is the fullness of revelation.
Advance courses offered
The Office of Evangelization and Catechesis announces a host of new Seat of Wisdom “Advanced” courses in Catholic doctrine available to all adults in the Diocese of Madison.
