Archdiocese of Chicago Strategic

Pastoral Plan

 

YEAR OF SUNDAY MASS

YEAR OF FAITH

 

Year of Sunday Mass

(July 2012 - July 2013)

 

The second year will focus on educating Catholics on the critical importance of Sunday Mass attendance and encouraging reflection on the Mass to foster a deeper appreciation and appropriation of the value of the Eucharist. This year may include but is by no means limited to some of the following elements:

• Educating parishioners frequently about the importance of Sunday Mass through homilies, bulletin articles, and other parish forums
• Providing seminars and forums that invite parishioners to a better understanding and appreciation of the liturgy
• Reaching out in the community to Catholics who attend Sunday Mass, but not on a weekly basis
• These efforts would be accompanied by a raising of vocational awareness in and through the celebration of the Eucharist. Additionally, the linkage between social justice and Eucharistic celebration would be underscored
