About Us |
|
Rob and Zach are students in the course Synoptic Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles at Kenrick-Glennon Seminary in St. Louis, MO. The purpose of our creating this website is to reach out to all those searching to know Jesus Christ and to bring them the Truth of the Gospel. This is a part of our effort in the New Evangelization and we entrust this work to the prayers of Servant of God, John Paul II and to Our Mother of Perpetual Help.
This is mission put forth by the Successors of St. Peter: “Young people... have a profound longing for those genuine values which find their fullness in Christ. Is not Christ the secret of true freedom and profound joy of heart? Is not Christ the supreme friend and the teacher of all genuine friendship? If Christ is presented to young people as he really is, they experience him as an answer that is convincing and they can accept his message, even when it is demanding and bears the mark of the Cross. For this reason, in response to their enthusiasm, I did not hesitate to ask them to make a radical choice of faith and life and present them with a stupendous task: to become "morning watchmen" (cf. Is 21:11-12) at the dawn of the new millennium.” - Pope John Paul II, Novo Millennio Ineunte #9, Jan. 6, 2001 “[T]he presentation of the Gospel message is not an optional contribution for the Church. It is the duty incumbent on her by the command of the Lord Jesus, so that people can believe and be saved. This message is indeed necessary. It is unique. It cannot be replaced. It does not permit either indifference, syncretism or accommodation. It is a question of people's salvation. It is the beauty of the Revelation that it represents. It brings with it a wisdom that is not of this world. It is able to stir up by itself faith - faith that rests on the power of God. It is truth. It merits having the apostle consecrate to it all his time and all his energies, and to sacrifice for it, if necessary, his own life.” - Pope Paul VI, Evangelii Nuntiandi #5, Dec. 8, 1975 |
