Legionaries of Christ collaborate with the Diocese of Sonsonate, in El Salvador, in support of their priests.<\/p>\n

Father Dennis Doren, LC, was invited by the communication delegate of the Diocese of Sonsonate (in El Salvador), Father Juan Jos\u00e9 Ascencio, to give a training talk to the clergy on the topic \u201cCommunication in service of Evangelization; and the new Areopagus to discover: social networks.\u201d<\/p>\n

They discussed the evangelizing use of the media: \u201cThe priest, by identifying with Christ the prophet, is the man of the announcement of the Good News. He is, so to speak, a communicator.<\/p>\n

Much of his ministry will be carried out through preaching. It is interesting in this sense to define the communicating priest as a man who goes out to meet others. We are witnessing in this time the transformation of social communication tools; these are conceived as an environment that the Church is called to evangelize also,\u201d commented Father Dennis.<\/p>\n

During the training talk, they also reflected on Pope Francis’s messages for the World Communications Day: \u201cThe digital network can be a place rich in humanity: not a network of cables, but of human persons\u201d (Pope Francis, Message for the 48th World Communications Day – 2014).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Attending the training talk were Bishop Constantino Barrera of Sonsonate, and 35 priests from the diocese.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
