Vietnam seminar on Vatican II as part of Year of Faith

XUAN HIEP, HCM: 23 November 2012 --  Following Pastoral Guidelines, a seminar on the teachings of Vatican Council 2 should be organized at Diocesan Level and levels.

On 3 November, 2012, the Theological Institute of Blessed Philip Rinaldi in Xuan Hiep, Viet Nam, organized a Seminar on the Year of Faith with the participation of more than 500 students and religious.

Bishop Anthony, of Dalat Diocese, shared his thoughts on Vatican Council II as a New Pentecost. He stressed the renewal of mind and way of living as Christians.

Mgr Joseph Dao, the Rector of the Major Seminary in Xuan Loc Diocese (Former member of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples), talked about the Missions, in which he proposed a new way of evangelization in Viet Nam : each religious congregation should pay more attention to the new challenges and should find new ways of evangelization to respond to new social situations in Viet Nam. There were many questions for him. The aim of his address and his responses was to re-enkindle the fire of evangelization.
