Social Evangelisation

About fifteen years ago, at a Faith Forum meeting in England, I asked a married couple, older than me, what it was like, living through the Second Vatican Council.

The Husband replied, "Terrifying, but my wife said to me again and again, 'Stick with the Pope and those who support him, and it will be all right.' "

As a fairly recent, and often fearful,  convert, I took great comfort from those words, and they still sustain me.

That was for me an excellent example of the power of normal social Evangelisation.
