Theme nine: Mother, Teacher, Family — The Nature and Role of the Church
In response to the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia this past September, the Office of Evangelization and Catechesis of the Diocese of Madison is providing a monthly series on a particular theme on marriage and family. Each theme is a chapter in the preparatory catechesis developed for the event entitled Love Is Our Mission: The Family Fully Alive, available in paperback from www.osvparish.com or for free online at www.worldmeeting2015.org This is the ninth of 10 themes that will be explored.
Understanding the nature and mission of the Church is intrinsic to understanding the family, and specifically, the family as the domestic Church.
On the night before His passion and death, Christ prays for those who will believe in Him through the words of His disciples, “that they may all be one; even as you Father, are in me, and I in you” (John 17:21).
Share the spiritual journey with author/teacher Paula D’Arcy
MADISON — An automobile accident in 1975 changed Paula D’Arcy’s life forever.
She woke up to discover that her husband and daughter had been killed in the wreck, but the baby she had carried for three months was still alive inside her.
“Everything about my life altered at that moment,” she says. “I was at a fork in the road; I could despair, or I could go deeper.”

Striving for holiness, gift of faith
As we prepare to begin another school year, I often reflect on how blessed we in this diocese are, blessed with over 40 Catholic elementary schools, well over twice the average number of Catholic schools found in dioceses of similar size.
These schools are treasures, pearls of faith, hope, love, and knowledge shining brightly for our parishes, our communities, and our Church.
