My dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

On behalf of the whole family of God here in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, I want to welcome you to our 2018 Religious Education Congress!

This year’s Congress has the theme of “Rise Up!” / “¡Levántate!” / “Hãy Đứng Lên!”

And this year, we want to refl ect on our faith in the Resurrection. We stand this year with the fi gure of Saint Martha, the sister of Mary and Lazarus.

We recall her pain and sorrow at the death of her brother. We all know the story; we hear it year after year in the liturgy. comes to their home after Lazarus had died and he declares: “I am the resurrection and the life.” And then he asks Martha: “Do you believe this?”

It is a powerful moment and we remember Martha’s confession of faith. In fact, to my mind it sounds very similar to the confession of faith that made. She says: “Yes, Lord, I have come to believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God.”

In this beautiful confession of faith in the resurrection, Saint Martha shows us the purpose of our own discipleship. We are called to bring our brothers and sisters to the knowledge that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, who died and is alive for evermore. We are called to bring them to know the Love that is stronger than death.

I pray that these will be days of grace for you in which you are able to draw closer to our Risen Lord and that you will be renewed in your commitment to proclaim the

WELCOME TO TO CONGRESS WELCOME Good News of his Resurrection.

I welcome you and entrust each of you to the maternal protection of our Blessed Mother Mary, Queen of Angels!

Most Reverend Jose H. Gomez Archbishop of Los Angeles

Dear friends in the Lord, Dear friends in the Lord, www.RECongress.org • Facebook: RECongress • Twitter/Instagram: LACongress Twitter/Instagram: • Facebook: RECongress • www.RECongress.org WELCOME

Blessings and greetings to all of you and welcome to Congress 2018! I am fi lled with joy to extend to you this invitation to join us for the Los Angeles Religious Education Congress held in Anaheim. We very much look forward to gathering with you again and celebrating our faith while we are challenged to live the Gospel. As I am writing this letter, so many communities around the world are suff ering greatly, especially from natural disasters such as fl oods, hurricanes, earthquakes and fi re. As devastating as those events may be, they do not triumph over the Spirit of God who stirs in the hearts of all people a desire to serve those in need and for those who are suff ering, the strength to rebuild. Our theme for Congress 2018 is “Rise Up” and it is perfectly suited to these times. Drawn from the readings of the fi fth Sunday of Lent which sees Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead, we realize that the mission of Christ is to restore all to the fullness of life in God, to hear him call our name and beckon us out of our tombs. Come and hear the voice of Jesus calling you to a more abundant life through the many conferences, liturgies, entertainment and resources that off ered throughout the weekend. Come and be replenished deep in your spirit and be challenged to live as a disciple fully alive in Christ. Together with all the many activities, you will opportunities to encounter God in Sacred Space in which you are invited to let your life, like prayer, rise up before God like incense (Ps 142). 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 11 students to pursue a Master’s degree in Religious Education. Your gift off ering of $34,545 at the 2017 Congress Saturday night liturgies together with registration contributions added $47,211 to this fund. We thank for your ongoing generosity. Thank you so much for your gracious support of Congress and participation in your communities through ministry. Let us hear the cry of our brothers and sisters in need and not remain indiff erent in our tombs but rise up in the spirit of Christ to assist them. I look forward to greeting you at the Religious Education Congress 2018. Sincerely,

Fr. Christopher Bazyouros Director, Offi ce of Religious Education

What is the Goal of the V Encuentro? Over 160 dioceses across the U.S. have engaged in the Fifth National Encuentro of Hispanic/Latino Ministry. The V Encuentro initiative is a process of evangelization, consultation and mission that was offi cially launched last year to discern ways for the Church in the United States to better respond to the ever-growing Hispanic presence, and to help Hispanics Catholics to strengthen their Christian identity and their response as missionary disciples for the entire Church.

Who Participates in the V Encuentro? All leaders in (arch)dioceses, parishes, lay ecclesial movements and other Catholic organizations and institutions are invited to participate by encountering Hispanic/Latino Catholics, particularly those living in the periphery through the missionary process of evangelization and consultation of the V Encuentro.

¡Bendiciones y saludos a todos ustedes y bienvenidos al Congreso 2018! Me siento lleno de alegría de extender a ustedes esta invitación a unirse a nosotros para el Congreso de Educación Religiosa de Los Ángeles celebrado en Anaheim. Estamos muy entusiasmados de reunirnos de nuevo y celebrar nuestra fe mientras enfrentamos el desafío de vivir el Evangelio. Mientras escribo esta carta, muchas comunidades alrededor del mundo están sufriendo mucho, especialmente de desastres naturales tales como inundaciones, huracanes, terremotos e incendios. Por más devastadores que sean esos acontecimientos no triunfan sobre el espíritu de Dios, que despierta en los corazones de todos nosotros el deseo de servir a los necesitados, y para los que sufren, la fuerza es reconstruir. Nuestro tema para el Congreso 2018 es “¡Levántense!” y se adapta perfectamente a estos tiempos. Jesucristo resucitando a Lázaro de entre los muertos, nos damos cuenta de que la misión de Cristo es devolver a todos a la plenitud de la vida en Dios; oírle llamar nuestro nombre y llamarnos de nuestras tumbas. Ven y escucha la voz de Jesús llamándote a una vida más abundante a través de las muchas conferencias, liturgias, capacitación y recursos durante el fi n de semana. Vengan y sean reabastecidos profundamente en su espíritu y sean desafi ados a vivir como una vida plena en Cristo. Junto con todas las actividades tendrás la oportunidad de encontrar a Dios en el Espacio Sagrado, al cual estás invitado a dejar que tu vida, como la oración, se levante ante Dios como incienso (Salmo 142). Como ustedes recordaran, se ha establecido la Fundación Monetaria de Educación Religiosa en la Arquidiócesis de Los Ángeles para la formación y educación de los Directores de Educación Religiosa, Formadores de Adultos, de Jóvenes y Ministerios Juveniles. Actualmente este fondo apoya a 11 estudiantes para obtener su Maestría en Educación Religiosa. Las donaciones dadas en las distintas liturgias del sábado durante el Congreso del 2017 junto con sus donaciones de inscripción llegaron a $47,211. Les agradezco su continua generosidad. Muchas gracias por vuestro generoso apoyo al Congreso y participación en las comunidades a través del ministerio. Escuchemos el grito de nuestros hermanos y hermanas necesitados, y no permanezcamos indiferentes en nuestras tumbas, sino que levantémonos en el espíritu de Cristo para ayudar. Espero con entusiasmo poder saludarlos en el Congreso de Educación Religiosa 2018. Sinceramente,

Rev. Christopher Bazyouros Director, Ofi cina de Educación Religiosa

EUCHARISTIC LITURGY • ST. PATRICK: THE IMMIGRANT SAINT Saturday, March 17, 2018 • 5:15 pm Rev. David Loftus, presider

Although many legends abound concerning St. Patrick, a study of his life reveals a true S journey of “rising up” to overcome many challenges and return with a heart on fi re for A Christ. St. Patrick was a victim of human traffi cking and slavery of his time and was an T immigrant to his beloved Ireland, where he spent his life evangelizing and catechizing the people there. Th is Mass recognizes that there are many people today who are suff ering in U modern-day slavery and human traffi cking and we must seek their freedom; that those R who migrate to our shores can bring blessings with them.
