Watch for this Thursday’s Post:

Mercy by Ruth Puls, Director of Catechetical and Pastoral Formation

Parish Table Talk

• Jubilee Year of Mercy begins today!  You can follow the works of mercy by many Catholic Center employees today on twitter at #AOByom and #MyArchBalt.  Please add your own news and projects to these feeds throughout the year.  Let’s light up social media with mercy!

• The Resources page for pastoral ministry is growing.  Please add your feedback and experiences with using these resources.  This is a great opportunity to network and share our wisdom in adapting these tools to better evangelize in our parishes.  Check out the Doors of Mercy program.

• This Singing Priest is Going to Ruin the World.  First there was the singing nun, Sr. Cristina Scuccia, on the Italian version on the Voice, and now Fr. Rob Galea from Australia.  Both use their singing talents to evangelize.  What talents are untapped in your community that could be used creatively to evangelize and welcome others?

Are you involved in catechesis?  Whether you work with children, teenagers or adults, there are breakout sessions at MAC that will help you in your ministry.  From digital tools, to proclaiming the word, to making sure you are not boring, check out the great speakers and topics for the Catechesis track at the Mid-Atlantic Congress.
