Congress, 1995

Dear 1995 Congress Participants:

As qnce again we gather for the Annual Religious Education Congress, our hearts
and minds are lifted up to our loving God. We pause to listen to God's Word
proclaimed during our days of Congress, to allow that Word to take deep root in our
lives, and to allow that Word to shape our lives as active disciples of Jesus Christ.

This year's Congress theme, Passion for Justice, is highlighted in the Scriptures for
the Sunday of our Congress. Jesus calls us to accept one another as brothers and
sisters, to extend ourselves in loving patience to each other, and to see others as far
more important than ourselves. Some of the refrains that will surround us this
weekend are: "the Lord is kind and merciful," "love your enemy and do good," and
''be compassionate as your Father is compassionate."
God's Word as revealed and lived out in the Person of Jesus is, indeed, powerful for
as
us. Our response is not always as ready and robust, we know. And yet, I pray that
these days of Congress '95 will stir up in each one of us a new "passion" for justice,
for recognizing the face of Jesus in all our sisters and brothers, and in teaching
children and young people how to follow the counsel and example of Jesus.
I look forward to our coming together for these days of prayer, reflection, education,
and sharing our lives in the Person of Jesus Christ!
Asking the blessings of our God who is kind, merciful and compassionate upon all of
you, I am
Dear Friends,
I am delighted to welcome all of you to another wonderful celebration of our
Annual Religious Education Congress. The theme selected, "Passion for
Justice" speaks of our call to live the gospel in its entirety and be a community
of God committed to living out the challenge of justice in our world today.
"
Congress 1995 offers us many opportunities to reflect on our commitment to
justice and compels us to be people of courage and conviction. To live and
a�t justly �hall�nge� us to on-going conversion and to the development of
nght relationship with God, others and all of creation.
The many outstanding workshops, opportunities for reflection, community
gatherings and liturgical experiences will be sources of enrichment for all.
It is with great joy that I greet you and hope that the weekend will encourage

f}er�ly T!JZR: you to go forth as ministers of the word, bringing the good news of freedom
and of hope to a world in need of healing.

Dear Catechist,

Let me welcome you to Congress 1995 where each of us will be able. to gain valuable
enrichment for our on-going personal adult religious education and formation.
a
In choosing your workshops may I suggest that you ask: Which workshops will
contribute to my personal spiritual enrichment and to the challenge to grow as a catechist?
As you may have noticed, the Congress workshops are not coded for recertification as in
previous years. We will now consider all workshops, keynotes and liturgies as a valuable
recertification experience for a catechist. We ask that catechists read descriptions and search out
workshops that meet their particular catechetical ministry needs; i.e. early childhood, elementary,
junior high, Confirmation, youth, young adult and adult.
In your role as catechist and in light of this year's Congress theme, uPassion for Justice", may your
experience at Congress '95 fill each of you with passion and love for God's message of justice, in order
to create a world more fit for living, more just and more humane.

Sincerely,
Jn�a�

1A A CHIRSITIAN ALTERNATIVE TO THE RELIGIOUS
RIGHT
Unfortunately the ·religious right' hos set most of the
Christion agendas. Today there ore many crises of
Justice. Jesus set the agenda when He stated that our
eternal Judgment was based on how we treated the
'least of our brothers•. Albert Toynbee stated that
every culture can be Judged on how It treats Its
poorest members. Three objectives: 1) The Importance
of working for justice as a cornerstone of our splrltuolfty
2) How to bring about the conversion of our people
from selfishness to Justice (moving this Issue from the
po/It/col to the spiritual) and 3) Concrete program In
our parishes to challenge "the people of God' to live
out their faith In working for Justice.

1 N MINISTERING TO FAMILIES IN CRISIS
Society and family structure is changing. In the good
old days, famllies pulled together and weathered
each crisis. Today, this Is not possible. Mobillty, high
divorce rates, deaths, unemployment, and even
chemical dependency have separated families and
left them unprepared and without any visible means
of support. Yet, families are the very foundation from
which emotionally healthy adults are formed. If family
is to survive, we as Church must respond. As Church,
we are called to and must empower our families to
face their pain as we minister to their emotional
wounds. Quite often what holds us back Is our fear of
stepping in where we are not wanted, not having the
"right words" or simply feeling unprepared. This
workshop w/11 address the emotions and needs of
family members as well as concrete, practical skills for
ministering to tam/lies in crisis.

Most surveys today insist that people are affiliating with

which we can become more committed to 'justice up

9P ARE WEDDINGS FOR RICHER OR POORER?
Dennis Mahaney
What is the perfect wedding anyway? Many couples
are paying big bucks to celebrate "Madison Ave­
Style.' This workshop will examine a formula for making
the wedding a day to remember especially tor the
�- We will also address why some suggest saving
marriage preparation until after the honeymoon and
some of the don't's of saying "I do.'
9Q WAITING AT THE LENTEN WELL: DRAWING ON
OUR STRENGTHS
Michael Mansfield
Redeeming this season of the liturgical year is the call
of Lent! So, "What strengths do we bring to this lenten
task?" In this question, we can unleash the power of
transforming lenten time into a Journey of resurrecting
the good, the Christ, the passion, the Justice, and the
life In each of us. Come to the well.
9R THE NEW CATECHISM ON PRAYER AND INTIMACY
WITH GOD: SEARCHING PASSIONATELY FOR
GOD'S PRESENCE IN THE NIGHTS OF GOD'S
SEEMING ABSENCE
Susan Muto, Ph.D.
The mystery of God's presence In seemingly absence
makes it difficult, even impossible, to penetrate the
depths of faith we need to survive a dark night
experience. And yet it is often only in such moments of
near despair that we cling to the hope of experiencing
a passionate love for and an intimacy with the God
who calls. The struggle to pray as well as the reminder
of our rich tradition of prayer makes Part Four of the
Catechism of the Catholic Church a profound
exposition of Christian prayer. With the help of this text
and insights from St. John of the Cross, we shall explore
the connection between passion (suffering) and prayer
(joy)

Congreso de 1995

Estimados Participantes del Congreso de 1995:

Al reunimos nuevamente para el Congreso Anual de Educaci6n Religiosa, nuestros

corazones y mentes se elevan a nuestro benigno Dios. Hacemos una pausa para
escuchar la Palabra de Dios proclamada durante nuestros dias del Congreso para
permitir que la Palabra forme rafces profundas en nuestras vidas, y para dejar que la
Palabra moldee nuestras vidas como discipulos activos de Jesucristo.

El tema del Congreso de este af10, Pasi6n por la Justicia, esta realzado en nuestro
Congreso en las Escrituras del Domingo. Jesus nos llama a que nos aceptemos el uno a
el otro como hermanos y hermanas, a que nos esforcemos en brindamos mutua
paciencia afectuosa, y ver a otros como a personas mas importantes que nosotros
mismos. Algunos de los estribillos que nos rodearan este fin de semana son: "el Senor
es justo y misericordioso," ama a tu enemigo y has el bien," y "se compasivo como tu
Padre es compasivo."
.
La Palabra de Dios tal como fue dada a conocer y puesta en practica por la Persona de
Jesus es, verdaderamente, poderosa para nosotros. Como sabemos, nuestra respuesta
no es siempre inmediata y firme. Y sin embargo, ruego para que estos dfas del
Congreso '95 inciten en cada uno de nosotros una nueva "pasi6n" por la justicia, para
reconocer el rostro de Jesus en todas nuestras hermanas y hermanos, y al ensefiar a
nuestros niftos y j6venes c6mo seguir el consejo y el ejemplo de Jesus.

iAguardo ansioso el que nos reunamos durante estos dfas de oraci6n, reflexi6n,
educaci6n y el compartir nuestras vidas en la Persona de Jesucristo!

Pidiendo sobre todos ustedes las bendiciones de nuestro Dios que es bondadoso,
misericordioso y compasivo, quedo de ustedes

a ser justos y a exigir la practica de la justicia.
Sera un fin de semana inigualable en el que podremos
