From Crisis To Mission: Helping parishes to face the challenges of lockdown

We are living in unprecedented times. Parishes in the UK have now been in full lockdown for over a month and many of the lay faithful are longing for the day when they will be able to visit their churches and to attend Mass.

The longer the crisis continues the more one is left wondering, what will parishioners be returning to? How will our parishes have coped, how will they cope, and what can the lay faithful do to help parishes both now and in the aftermath of COVID-19.

For this CV Connect Webinar, we will be joined by Fiona O’Reilly, Director of Global Strategy for Divine Renovation which inspires and equips parishes to be missional and through them bring people to Jesus. Fiona brings together her extensive experience as a management consultant and love for the Catholic faith to offer practical ways to come together to help parishes not only to survive lockdown but to thrive, and even to see this crisis as an opportunity for parishes to evangelise.
