CCT encounters Luke 4:18: Is Jesus’ Proclamation our proclamation?
Each of the 5 faith families will present a substantial overview of their understanding of evangelization, taking into consideration any links they see between evangelization and social justice. Presenters will reflect on the ecumenical dimension of their family’s understanding of evangelization and the possibility of offering common witness with other Christians.

Seminarians Day – Wednesday, Feb 7
Students from seminaries and schools of religion in the greater Pasadena area are invited to be present on Wednesday for the faith families presentations on their understanding and practice of evangelization. There will be opportunity to respond to the presentations and for interaction with church leaders. Students are encouraged to stay for the Celebration and Commitment. Registration for students is free, but is required. Contact Rachel Medema at rachel@hardtoexplain.net.
