 In the latest edition of Rejoice in the Lord, Cardinal Tobin continues to highlight his We Are His Witnesses pastoral planning initiative for the Archdiocese of Newark, emphasizing the need for pastoral conversion and missionary discipleship inspired by Jesus’ call to follow Him. Cardinal Tobin highlights the Blessed Virgin Mary as the ultimate model of faith, stewardship and transformation, demonstrating how her unwavering trust in God’s Providence serves as a guide for the Church’s mission. Drawing from Pope Francis’ vision of the Church as a merciful mother, Cardinal Tobin encourages us to deepen our commitment to Christ and seek Mary’s intercession as we discern the future of our faith community.
