In his pastoral letter,

A Light Brightly Visible: Lighting the Path to Missionary Discipleship

Archbishop Lori challenges us to stretch ourselves to go deeper in our relationship with Christ, embrace the mission of the Church more fully, and live out this mission in our daily lives.

He challenges us…

To do this with enthusiasm, hope, a sense of urgency, and – most importantly – unwavering faith in the Lord. He asks us to consider how we would respond to these questions:

      • Are we equipped to fulfill the great commission the Lord has given us?
      • Do we personally have the qualities of mind, heart, and spirit to take up this task?
      • Are our parishes ready to respond to the challenges of the mission in our times?
      • What decisions need to be made so that we can marshal the resources the Lord has given us to do the work of the Gospel?
      • Are there ways we can pull together as a Catholic community to proclaim and bear witness to the Gospel more effectively in the city of Baltimore and the nine counties of Maryland that comprise the Archdiocese of Baltimore?
      • How can we reach out more dynamically to those who have left and those who are searching?
