Father
of goodness and mercy, rejuvenate your Church in America with apostolic
impulse in Christian communities and groups, to proclaim within
and beyond the Continent, the Gospel of Jesus the light and hope
of all peoples.
(From
Pope's prayer
for CAM 2) |

American Missionary Congress |

| WHAT IS AN AMERICAN MISSION CONGRESS? |
An American Mission Congress CAM is a meeting of the People of God,
especially those who in the Church in America, north, centre, south
and in the Caribbean, are in any way engaged in activity of ad gentes
missionary promotion and animation at local, regional or national
level. The primary objective of CAM is to animate the Particular
Churches of the American continent so they may shoulder their missionary
responsibility to engage in specific evangelisation of all peoples.
These Congresses have an eminently pastoral character and they are
a valid and almost indispensable means of giving profundity, form
and life to the missionary awareness of these Churches. |
