A "Special Parish Mission"

About the Book

A "Special Parish Mission" involves two Pastors and their parishes as well as the Bishop. One parish prays for the other having the mission and vice-versa. The pastors swap parishes to put on the mission. Two Missions were put on in the Diocese of Cheyenne. The results were very good. Improvements at the suggestion of the Bishop and one of the pastor/preachers, as well as the observations of the author, have resulted in the Mission in this "final" form.

The Mission brings personal conversion to Jesus Christ, along with sacramental catechesis in a format which deepens the Faith and brings loyalty to the teachings of Christ and his Church, including John Paul II's "Theology of the Body" in understandable language designed for the consumption of our couples. Ongoing family formation is also addressed with a great innovative, yet easy to implement, solution, including our "prayer lives."
