WELCOME Welcome to Congress 2 2009 Religious Education Congress
WELCOME General Info February 2009 Dear Congress Participants, May I take this opportunity to welcome you to another wonderful Religious Education Congress. Each year this marvelous event affords us an opportunity to renew our faith and our commitment to the ministry of evangelization and catechesis. The 2009 theme Love Unfolding Igniting Our Yes flows from the Scriptures of the First Sunday in Lent. We are reminded that Covenant Love, poured out and at the heart of all of creation, draws us ever more profoundly into the heart of a loving God. It is the way of Jesus who called his disciples and now invites us to utter our yes with courage, confident that through our own passion the lives of others will catch fire and be made new again. The excellent keynotes, workshops, and liturgical celebrations offered throughout the weekend are a source of enrichment and renewal for all. I am gratified and encouraged that so many of you take advantage of the wonderful opportunities for networking, input, and renewal. Your leadership and participation are key to the ongoing growth and well being of our parish communities of faith. Please be assured of my continuing support and encouragement as you dedicate your time and energy to this most vital catechetical ministry. Asking God s blessing on you, your families and parish communities, and with every best wish, I am Sincerely yours in Christ, His Eminence Cardinal Roger Mahony Archbishop of Los Angeles www.recongress.org 3
WELCOME Dear Friends, It is with great joy that I welcome you to yet another wonderful faith-filled Congress. The weekend offers us the opportunity to gather, renew and recommit to sharing the Good News. Our theme for 2009, Love Unfolding... Igniting Our Yes, is inspired by the Scriptures for the first Sunday of Lent. Trusting in God s faithful Covenant, we are nourished and sustained on the journey. Our bond of oneness generates and ignites a fresh energy and propels us to give voice to our yes anew. As you will recall, a Religious Education Endowment Fund has been established in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles for the ongoing education and formation of Directors of Religious Education, Adult Educators, Young Adults and Youth Ministers. The fund is currently enabling 10 students to pursue a master s degree in Religious Education. Your gift offering at the 2008 Congress Saturday night liturgies added $42,000 to this fund. We also thank those who made a special contribution to the endowment with their online registration. The creative and inspirational liturgical celebrations and entertainment provided are sure to lift our spirits and ignite our yes. At the heart of the many activities there is also opportunity to come apart and rest in the silence of Sacred Space, walk the labyrinth or celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Thank you for your wonderful leadership and your unwavering commitment to uttering your yes and keeping the vision of Jesus central to all that you are and do. I look forward to greeting you at this spirit-filled gathering. Sincerely, Sr. Edith Prendergast, RSC Archdiocesan Director Office of Religious Education 4 2009 Religious Education Congress

At the present crossroad we can choose this street of hope and travel this road to progress.

Este evento anual representa una maravillosa oportunidad para reunirnos y renovar nuestro compromiso del ministerio de evangelización y catequesis. El tema seleccionado, Amor Revelador... Encendiendo nuestro Sí fluye a partir de la lectura del primer domingo de Cuaresma. Nos recuerda que la alianza de amor derramada en el corazón de toda la creación sigue desplegándose, conduciéndonos cada vez más profundamente hacia el corazón del pródigo Dios. Esta es la manera con que Jesús llama a sus discípulos invitándonos a pronunciar nuestro sí con fuerza y valor sabiendo que es desde nuestra pasión y convicción que las vidas de otras personas serán encendidas en el fuego que nos hará seres nuevos otra vez. Los excelentes presentadores, los talleres, y las celebraciones litúrgicas ofrecidas a lo largo del fin de semana son una fuente de enriquecimiento y renovación para todos. Me complace y anima el que tantas personas tomen el tiempo para asistir y sacar provecho de las maravillosas oportunidades que se les ofrece para su propia renovación. Su liderazgo y participación son puntos clave para la constante renovación espiritual de nuestras comunidades parroquiales. Estén seguros de mi apoyo continuo a su generosa dedicación de tiempo y energía hacia este importantísimo ministerio catequético. Pidiéndole a Dios, abundantes bendiciones sobre cada uno de ustedes, sus familias y sus comunidades parroquiales, quedo de ustedes Sinceramente en Cristo, Su Eminencia Cardenal Rogelio Mahony Arzobispo de Los Angeles www.recongress.org 27
BIENVENIDO Febrero 2009 Queridos amigos y amigas en el ministerio catequético: Es con sumo placer que les doy mi calurosa bienvenida a otro maravilloso y lleno de fe Congreso de Educación Religiosa. Este fin de semana nos ofrece la oportunidad de reunirnos para renovarnos y afirmar nuestro compromiso de esparcir la Buena Nueva. Nuestro tema para el 2009, Amor Revelador... Encendiendo nuestro Sí, está inspirado en las escrituras para el Primer domingo de Cuaresma. Confiando en la fiel alianza de Dios nosotros, nosotras somos alimentadas, alimentados y sostenidos, sostenidas en el viaje. Nuestra unidad genera y enciende una energía saludable y nos impulsa para dar nuestro nuevo y renovado Sí. Como ustedes recordarán, se ha establecido la Fundación de Educación Religiosa en la Arquidiócesis de Los Angeles para la formación y educación continua de los Directores de Educación Religiosa, Formadores de Adultos, de Jóvenes y Ministerios Juveniles. Actualmente este fondo apoya a 10 estudiantes para obtener su Maestría en Educación Religiosa. Las donaciones dadas en las distintas liturgias del sábado durante el Congreso del 2007 alcanzaron los $42.000. Agradecemos también a quienes realizaron una contribución especial a este fondo mediante su registración en nuestro sitio. Gracias por su maravilloso liderazgo y su invariable compromiso para enunciar su Sí al mantener la visión de Jesús como punto central a todo lo que son y hacen. Hasta verles y saludarles personalmente en este gran evento. Quedo de ustedes Cariñosamente, Hna.

TALLERES ASAMBLEA GENERAL P. ALVARO GINEL VIELVA Sala B Domingo, 8:30 am Te mostraré una tierra y seré tu compañero, tu futuro Dios se presenta y nos sorprende en la vida para cambiarla. Dios se presenta en nuestra vida y se hace compañero. El amor de Dios se hace no solo cercanía, sino intimidad. Dios quiere ser nuestro íntimo, nuestro motor interior, nuestra luz. Esta presencia de Dios es transformadora. Nos solicita y nos propone una tierra a la que sólo se llega con síes (a veces tejidos de noes). Decir sí a Dios es elegir la luz y dejarnos guiar por su luz, por su Espíritu. Dios es nuestro presente y será nuestro futuro. = audio-grabación DOMINGO, 1 DE MARZO Congreso VIERNES, FEBRERO 27 Convenciones 207 (segundo piso) 8:00-10:00 pm Tertulia: Una noche con Padre Miguel Pro Ven a ver con nosotros Padre Pro, una película mexicana que presenta la vida y martirio de un sacerdote joven que vivió a principios del Siglo XX durante la persecución religiosa en México.

CONGRESS 2009 PROCLAMATION Tony Alonso ARENA Taste! See! Touch! Hear! The overwhelming Love of God unfolding, Igniting within us a sacred romance; A covenant of faith, A river of compassion; A promise of peace. We know this unfolding love so well In igniting the response of Mary, The yes of a young woman, Giving birth to the Savior of the world. We know this unfolding love so well In feeding the yearning of the blind and homeless one Abandoned by family and friends, who recognized the Light of the World in a stranger on the side of the road; We know this unfolding love so well In the search for wholeness Of a woman sitting near Jacob s well where she drank deep of God s lavish grace made flesh for her, for all. We know this unfolding love so well In opening the hearts of ordinary people To recognize and celebrate God s love In surprising circumstances, In unexpected places. Arena But this love is not just an ancient love. With every breath we take, God s love unfolds around us and within us, And with persistent patience and abiding hope, Waits for our response to God s simple and stark invitation to Come and see, Even when we have become tired of looking; Even when our eyes are filled with tears; Even when we are unsure of what we might see. www.recongress.org Still, God calls, And each day extends the same invitation: Come and see. And God yearns for our yes to tasting and seeing and touching and hearing the love of God poured out in every time and every place, reminding us to live the promise, to be faithful to the covenant to ignite the yes of the world.
