The Parish as a School of Prayer: Foundations for the New Evangelization

About this book

Father Scott Traynors book The Parish as a School of Prayer: Foundations for the New Evangelization recognizes Blessed John Paul IIs urging for priests to transform their parishes into powerhouses of prayer. The world today poses many hazards that are capable of progressively undermining faith. Divine Love alone is capable of inspiring directing and sustaining the Christians mission to transform culture according to Gods plan. The priest must become a Christian witness of prayer. He should not draw attention to himself but to the utter necessity goodness and beauty of deepening intimacy with God in prayer. In calling the parish to the life of prayer the priest is uniting himself with Gods own loving initiative.
