Quotes by Donald Wuerl  (?)

“The magisterium, the Church’s teaching office, does not assert that in its proclamation of the faith it has exhausted every development, nuance, or application of the faith in the circumstances of our day. But the Church does define that the authoritative teachers of the faith will not lead us into error and away from Christ. No one else can rightfully make that claim. We turn to the teaching of the Church not for speculation, but for sure guidance on the way to eternal life with Christ.”
Donald Wuerl, New Evangelization: Passing on the Catholic Faith Today

“The Church has passed through a period of great upheaval, and even in some places disorientation, in the decades of the 1970s, ’80s, and even part of the ’90s. But we are in a new moment in the life of the Church and are moving in the right direction.”
Donald Wuerl, New Evangelization: Passing on the Catholic Faith Today

“While it is important that the New Evangelization be alert to the signs of the time and speak with a voice that reaches people today, it must do so without losing its rootedness in the great living faith tradition of the Church already expressed in theological concepts.”
Donald Wuerl, New Evangelization: Passing on the Catholic Faith Today
