2016 Pentecost message for Canadian Catholic movements and associations
Thursday, May 12, 2016
The Standing Committee for Relations with Movements and Associations of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) has issued its annual Pentecost message. Referring to how grace is always both a gift and a responsibility, the Standing Committee says that the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy is an invitation to Catholic Movements and Associations to be open “to the gift of mercy” and “to take up the responsibility of promoting mercy. Our membership in the various Movements and Associations gives each of us unique opportunities to both experience God’s mercy and be ambassadors of God’s mercy.”
