See with His Eyes, Love with His Heart, Share in His Virtues
O'Donoghue, Bishop Patrick
Document on Catholic schools’ ethos and identity
Rt Rev Patrick ODonoghue, Bishop of Lancaster, wrote Fit for Mission? Schools to renew the fire of faith in Catholic schools and colleges in his diocese. CTS has now prepared this expanded edition for wider distribution. The Bishop offers practical guidance on how to further develop and deepen an authentic Catholic ethos, through cultivating the integration of faith as believed, celebrated, lived, and prayed. Bishop Patrick is convinced that the Catechism of the Catholic Church is the best resource for creating an authentic Catholic ethos in our schools.
This expanded edition draws on recent documents from the Holy See, including: Pope Benedict XVIs encyclical, Spe Salvi, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faiths Doctrinal Note on Some Aspects of Evangelisation and the Congregation for Catholic Educations Educating Together in Catholic Schools.
Bishop Patrick ODonoghue is the Bishop of Lancaster, and former Rector of Allen Hall Seminary (198590). The Bishop wrote Fit for Mission? Schools with the advice and expertise of teachers, parents, clergy, and theologians.
