Dear Friend of the Congar Institute: We present to you our new blog entitled “Eucharist in the Time of Corona”. We know how disruptive the pandemic has been to our access to the Eucharist. We want the blog to assist readers to thrive despite the Eucharistic famine in the land. In fact, we want to explore what it means to be a Eucharistic People in the midst of a Eucharistic famine, to explore where grace abounds during this dark time and to find reason for thanksgiving (the root meaning of “Eucharist”), even now.

VISION
The Congar Institute draws upon the vision of the late Cardinal Yves Congar, who devoted his life to retrieving the image of the church as a living sacrament of Christ’s presence in the world and as a priestly people consecrating the world to God. The Second Vatican Council endorsed and developed Congar’s vision of a church where all the baptized are called to be apostles, where the lives of all the faithful bear witness to the kingdom of God, and where, through them, the light of the gospel is meant to illuminate every aspect of social experience. Like Congar himself, we believe that adult faith formation can and must transform each believer into an evangelizer, and that in this age of “new evangelization” the ministry of the church can and must discover how to be appropriately inclusive, empowering, and missionary.
VISIÓN
El Instituto Congar se basa en la visión del fallecido cardenal Yves Congar, quen dedicó su vida a recuperar la imagen de la iglesia como un sacramento viviente de la presencia de Cristo en el mundo y como un pueblo sacerdotal consagrando el mundo a Dios. El Concilio Vaticano II respaldó y desarrolló esta visión, promeviendo una iglesia donde todos los bautizados son llamados a ser apóstoles y donde a través de los laicos, la uz del Evangelio ilumina todos los aspectos de la convivencia social. Al iqual que el propio Congar, nosotros creemos que una sólida formación teológica de adultos puede transformar a cada creyente en un
evangelizador, y que en estos tiempos de la "nueva evangelización" el ministerio de la iglesia puede y debe descubrir cómo ser inclusiva, capacitadora, y misonera.
