The Live Christ Share Christ (LCSC) is the lay response to the sacred call for New Evangelization. It is
mainstreaming Catholic Lay Evangelization since 2011 and championing the mission to the ends of the
earth. LCSC envisions lapsed Catholics to meet, live and share Christ. LCSC is of the Church, by the
Church, and for the Church. We are servants the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, we work to
defend the Catholic faith and to proclaim the saving power of the Good News.
LCSC’s banner program is the Life in Christ Seminar (LCS). It is an integrated course
intended to lead seminar participants into a renewed understanding of God’s call to
them as Catholic Christians.
The LCS has one basic purpose: bringing participants to a personal relationship with
Jesus as Savior and Lord, and getting them started on living a truly spirit-filled Christian
life.
The LCS is for all – active or lapsed, mature or an infant in Christ, rich or poor, young or
old, married or single, of whatever nationality or culture. It is however particularly
effective in reaching nominal Catholics and the grassroots.
The LCS is comprised of 5 sessions, each session having the basic ingredients: prayers,
songs, teaching, group discussion, fellowship. The topics are based on the sermon of
Peter on the day of Pentecost, when he proclaimed the gospel and 3,000 people
accepted the message of salvation.
This talk speaks about the dire situation in the world today. The world has
turned away from God, and only God can make things right. Thankfully, God has a
wonderful plan for us, that is why He sent His son, Jesus.
This talk speaks about what is expected of us, if we are to truly experience the
fullness of life in Jesus. We must strive to live out the two greatest commandments –
love of God and love of neighbor.
Session 3: Repentance and Faith
This talk speaks about our response to God’s call. As we fall far short of the
authentic Christian life, we need to repent and put our faith in Jesus.
Aside from the talk, this is a prayer session. The call to the Christian life is
difficult, not to be done on our own strength. We need the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit provides the power from above that enables us to lead a normal
Christian life.
This talk speaks about the 5 tools to growing in the Christian life. These are
prayer, study, service, fellowship and the sacraments. This paves the way for people to
become witnesses who can credibly share the gospel.
The LCS is just the first step in bringing people fully back to God and back to the Church.
After the LCS, there should be a lifetime of formation, of which there is much to offer in
the Church.
o The Live Christ Share Christ Mission is not engaged in the Church only, for we believe
that other institutions outside the Church must also be evangelized, thus, the LCSC
Publics.

We shall therefore embark on a nine-year spiritual journey that will culminate with the great
jubilee of 2021. It is a grace-filled event of blessings for the Church starting October 21, 2012 until
March 16, 2021.
How opportune indeed that on October 21 this year, the Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI will add
another Filipino to the canon of saints of the Church, our very own Visayan proto-martyr Pedro
Calungsod who gave his life for the faith on the morning of April 2, 1672 in Guam.
The canonization of Pedro Calungsod will take place under the brilliant light of the fiftieth
anniversary of the opening of the Second Vatican Council, the twentieth year of the publication of the
Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the declaration of the Year of Faith from October 11, 2012 until
November 24, 2013 by the Holy Father. The XIII Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops with
the theme “The New Evangelization for the Transmission of the Christian Faith” will take place in Rome
from October 7 to 28 this year.
All these events happening this year are bound together by the themes of “faith” and
“evangelization”. Evangelization indicates proclamation, transmission and witnessing to the Gospel
given to humanity by our Lord Jesus Christ and the opening up of people’s lives, society, culture and
history to the Person of Jesus Christ and to His living community, the Church.
This “New Evangelization” is primarily addressed to those who have drifted from the Faith and
from the Church in traditionally Catholic countries, especially in the West. What we are being called to
do by this task of “New Evangelization” in Asia is to consider anew “the new methods and means for
transmitting the Good News” more effectively to our people. We are challenged anew to foster in the
Church in our country a renewed commitment and enthusiasm in living out the Gospel in all the diverse
areas of our lives, in “real-life practice”, challenged anew to become more and more authentic witnesses
of our faith, especially to our Asian neighbors as a fruit of our intensified intimacy with the Lord.
WHAT WILL THIS ERA OF NEW EVANGELIZATION FOR THE PHILIPPINES CONSIST OF ?
The task stands on four pillars:
First, fostering and fulfilling the “missio ad gentes”, as a special vocation of the Church in our
country, effectively involving our laypeople, our “Christifideles” brothers and sisters; our priests and
seminarians; men and women in consecrated life.
Secondly, “bringing Good News to the poor.” Again and again, Filipino Catholics coming together
to discern priorities, have seen that the Church here must become genuinely “a Church for and with the
poor.”
Thirdly, reaching out to those among us whose faith-life has been largely eroded and even lost
due to the surrounding confusion, moral relativism, doubt, agnosticism; reaching out tothose who have
drifted from the Faith and the Church, and have joined other religious sects.
Lastly, awakening or reawakening in faith, forming and animating in Christian life our young people and
youth sector groups, in both urban and rural settings;
A nine-year journey for the New Evangelization has already been charted climaxing with the
Jubilee Year 2021: Integral Faith Formation (2013); the Laity (2014); the Poor (2015); the Eucharist and
of the Family (2016); the Parish as a Communion of Communities (2017); the Clergy and Religious
(2018); the Youth (2019); Ecumenism and Inter-Religious Dialogue (2020); Missio ad gentes (2021).
These are the nine pastoral priorities of the Church in the Philippines.
In the time before us, we will focus on these dimensions of faith, evangelization and
discipleship, one by one. And it is most propitious that as we received the faith 500 years ago, so with
the Year 2021we envision to become a truly sending Church.
In the face of a secularism which in some parts of our present world has itself become a kind of
a “dominant religion”, in the face of the reality of billions who live in our time and who have not truly
encountered Jesus Christ nor heard of His Gospel, how challenged we are, how challenged we must be,
to enter into the endeavor of the “New Evangelization”! We for whom Jesus has been and is truly the
Way, the Truth and the Life, — how can we not want and long and share Him with brothers and sisters
around us who are yet to know and love Him, who are yet to receive the fullness of Life for which we
have all been created, and without which their hearts will be ever restless – until they find Jesus and His
heart which awaits them?
May our Lady, Mary Mother of Our Lord, lead us all in our longing and labors to bring her son
Jesus Christ into our time and our world, our Emmanuel – our God who remains with us now and yet
whose coming again in glory we await.
Maranatha, AMEN.
