IGNITE! A parish event for all generations
"We cannot keep ourselves shut up in parishes, in our communities, when so many people are waiting for the Gospel. It is not enough simply to open the door in welcome, but we must go out through the door to seek and meet the people. The ability to share the Good News relies on first recognizing how truly good it is.”
-- On Missionary Discipleship - Pope Francis
