RECOMMENDATIONS

___________________________

Having seen our situation after a soul-searching analyis of our organization, we found out that one area we have to work on is regarding the multiplicity of roles and responsibilities of the Catholic Biblical Federation – Southeast Asia. Whereas this condition affects the effectivity of our Biblical Pastoral Ministry,

We, therefore, resolve:

  1. To prioritize Biblical Pastoral Ministry among other roles and responsibilities; and
  2. To seek creative ways and means for collaborative support of priests, bishops, and religious superiors.
