The president of the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization, Archbishop Rino Fisichella, is going to visit the General Government of Shalom Catholic Community by the end of January of 2017 in Aquiraz, Ceará. An intense program will mark the visit of the Archbishop, President of the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization.
One of Archbishop Rino’s main activities with Shalom Community will be a youth vigil scheduled for January 28th. In this audience are expected more than four thousand people for this encounter, which will be composed of a great celebration with testimonies, a show with the band “Missionario Shalom” and the presentation of a musical play which speaks about the community’s vocation. The young people will also have the opportunity to participate in a “Talk” with the archbishop and Moyses Azevedo, founder of Shalom Catholic Community.
This visit is part of Shalom Community’s 35 years anniversary program. The high point of the Community’s 35 years celebrations will take place in September during Shalom Convention in Rome in the presence of Pope Francis.
Moysés Azevedo was nominated in 2011 for the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization that aims to “deepen the theological and pastoral meaning of the new evangelization by promoting in the Episcopal Conferences the study, diffusion and performance of the Pontifical Magisterium. In a special way, the Dicastery has to favor the use of modern forms of communication, to find out how they can be valid instruments of evangelization. Finally, it is incumbent on him to identify the most coherent forms for the promotion of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, as an effective teaching for the transmission of the faith”, according to the official website of the Roman dicastery.
