Jesus Christ: Our Beginning and End
Issued for the First Sunday of Advent 2020
Bishop Anthony Randazzo has issued his first pastoral letter to the community of the Church in Broken Bay, entitled, Jesus Christ: Our Beginning and End.
"I have been your Bishop for just over a year and in that period, I have had time to consider what I believe are important priorities for our community of the Church. In six points I have summarised these priorities, and I bring them to your attention and offer them to you for your contemplation and prayer.”
The pastoral letter outlines six important priorities the Bishop has identified in his first year as the Bishop of Broken Bay. These priorities begin with the person of Jesus Christ and include themes central to our mission.
Six Key Priorities
1. The Person of Jesus Christ
Centering our lives and mission on Christ.
2. Discipleship
Following Christ in our daily lives.
3. Building a Culture of Vocation
Discernment of God's call for each of us.
4. Unity
Fostering communion within the Church.
5. Education
Formation of hearts and minds.
6. The Poor
Serving those in need with compassion.
Bishop Anthony develops each priority with teaching and personal examples from his own life and experience within the Diocese.
