Does this fit with the New Evangelization?
Is this what we need to do?

Yes, very much like that.
Church Street would be awesome. It’s appropriately named for it, but for those who don’t know Burlington, it’s also the major shopping, dining, and meeting street where traffic is closed off and there are usually plenty of people walking up and down it.

It was beautiful. Thank you.

I love it! This is the kind of faith that evangelized the pagans so successfully.
