Renew My Church

There has been a movement within the Archdiocese over the last few years to re-evaluate and re-allocate the
resources and strengths throughout the Archdiocese to better bring it into the current changing times.
To that end, and now with the appearance of the COVID-19 situation, those processes have been enhanced and adjusted to accommodate the current events. This page contains the most current information made available by the Archdiocese to try to explain the what, where and when of the Renew My Church process.

Renew My Church Prayer

Lord Jesus, you speak to us today,
As you spoke to holy men and women
Who have gone before us.
In every age and in our own time,
You call to us and say: Renew My Church.
Pour out the gift of your Holy Spirit upon us,
And so enable us
To hear you clearly
To listen to each other attentively
To imagine our future boldly
To discern your direction wisely
To persevere in your holy will courageously
To stay together in charity
To surrender our own plans readily
To embrace the greater good
To hand on your gifts to future generations.
May we remain in the holy company of
The Blessed Virgin Mary, the Apostles, and all the saints.
May their example and presence
Inspire us with patient confidence
In the work of your grace.
We ask this of you who live and reign
With the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God,
Forever and ever. Amen.
