"Were not our hearts burning [within us] while he spoke to us on the way and opened the scriptures to us?" (Luke 24:32). The U.S. bishops renew their commitment to adult faith formation, addressing the opportunities and potential, challenges and concerns of this area of ministry. Goals, principles, and content approaches are provided to help leaders as they reach out to the adults in their community.
