Inspiration: the first segment/part of Dr. Uhl’s Catholic School Matters podcast for Nov 21, 2018.
Dr. Uhl talks with Mary Pat Donoghue (no relation) of the USCCB. Their conversation touches upon one very important concept in the face of the ongoing storms which are affecting the Church: mission.
It is easy to see mission as God calling us out of where we are into a new (scarier) situation. However, I think that neglects the Ivery real sense of mission in our current situation.
Dr. Uhl uses the question of what can I do where I am?
This sense of the immediate mission, the present call, to leadership, trust-building (re-building), and charity in our own lives is key to forming a Church that lives closer to its ideals.
