The Church's Three-Year Plan for the Millennium
Did you know the
Church invited you to join a three-year plan of preparation culminating in the
Jubilee Year of 2000? We are now in the third year, devoted to reflection on
the Father. Last year's focus was the Holy Spirit while 1997 was dedicated
to Jesus Christ.
Preparing for the year 2000...
...is aimed at an increased sensitivity to all that the Spirit is saying to the Church and to the churches as well as to individuals through charisms meant to serve the whole community. The purpose is to emphasize what the Spirit is suggesting to different communities, from the smallest ones, such as the family, to the largest ones, such as nations and international organizations, taking into account cultures, societies and sound traditions.
--John Paul II, "As the Third Millennium Draws Near"
