Description
Summary:New evangelisation is a rich concept that offers many possibilities for Catholic schools. This article establishes an expansive understanding of new evangelisation as the call to re-read the memory of the faith in the new contexts. It argues that new evangelisation in Catholic schools and systems should operate within a 'mission-in-context pedagogy', an intentional and agile approach that engages students, teachers and parents in an open narrative and respectful dialogue between the richness of the Catholic tradition and the pluriform contexts of their experiences and their cultural milieu. It illustrates this approach through five stories of new evangelisation in Broken Bay Catholic schools on the Diocesan Synod website.
