Message to the Faithful
As we continue on our journey to bring the intimate
encounter of Christ to all, we as a diocese are faced with
the growing challenge to meet the needs of our expanding
spiritual population. While this is a welcome challenge
and we are blessed to be building on the number of
faithful in our flock, we as members of the Catholic
Church in Southern Nevada are
being called upon to reflect on
these blessings and how we can
grow as a faith community
through stewardship and the
sharing of God’s gifts.
We have reached a crossroads
as a diocese in dealing with the
growing needs of our Catholic
community, making it necessary
for us to launch a capital
campaign in order to fulfill our mission; the mission of
bringing the Gospel message of Hope to all through
evangelization, life-long formation and worship.
Worship - The Diocese of Las Vegas needs to provide
parishes and clergy to allow all Catholics in our community
to worship and experience God in a personal way.
Evangelization - As we struggle to provide for the needs
of our current members, we often miss opportunities to
reach and welcome the stranger as those searching for
the Truth.
Lifelong Formation - A commitment to live a holy life
is a lifelong pledge of faith formation and service to others
in Jesus Christ. We as a church need to encourage and
enable the spiritual connection between God and his
faithful people to flourish and grow.
Service, Growing Faith in our Community will be the
source by which the Diocese of Las Vegas can put into
action its calling from God and approach the challenge
of growth with an eye toward anticipation rather than
reaction. It is my wish that we can all join together
to keep the Catholic presence alive and vibrant in all
communities within our diocese by prayerfully
reflecting on our role as Disciples of Jesus Christ
and Stewards of Faith in our community.
