Pastoral Language and Evangelization 2000

Initiated by the Department of Social Development, Justice and Peace of the Catholic Diocese of Okigwe in Nigeria, this book is the Church response to the problem posed by language in the gospel message. Pastoral language is defined as one used by a Priest to bring the message of salvation to his flock. It is observed that the choice of the language of the community is ideal for the spread and propagation of the message of Christ; and clerics and lay persons alike are advised on their responsibilities in the liturgical process. The usefulness of youth in apostolic work is also addressed.Pastoral Language and Evangelization 2000, with ISBN 9789781564444 and ISBN 978156444X.
