20th Anniversary Issue-电子游戏软件

This anniversary issue of C21 Resources magazine, “The Church in the 21st Century Center - 20 Years,” is a celebration that takes both a look back and forward at the C21 Center's work and mission. Unique to this issue is information on the many programs and resources developed by the Center that are available to parishes, schools, and individuals everywhere - all complimentary and accessible online.

Additionally, this issue contains a selection of articles (newly commissioned, recently published, and rediscovered from previous C21 Resources magazines) that address topics relevant to the key challenges facing the Church today. Our hope is that readers will engage with and share this information far and wide. Please contact us at church21@c178.net for further information.

"The Gift of Education and the Intellect" - Fr. Michael Himes (PDF from p. 38)

Fr. Michael J. Himes (1947–2022) was a diocesan priest from Brooklyn, New York, a distinguished theologian, and a faculty member at Boston College for almost three decades. His life and work continue to inspire countless students, colleagues, and people across the world. We hope to honor his legacy by sharing his words of wisdom through not only his writing, but also his recorded conversations with the Boston College community.
