Tool for Evangelization and Mission
by David Philippart
Your church building is the most expensive tool for mission and evangelization that your parish has. At a pastoral staff, parish council or liturgy committee meeting, look at it with fresh attention. (Don't discuss it abstractly. Take this article with you and go walk around!). This is basic stewardship. It's also an exercise in practical theology. Architects know, from Winston Churchill, that "we shape our buildings then they shape us." Is your church building shaping your parish into the body of Christ, or into something else? How boldly, and correctly, is your building proclaiming the good news of Christ? In this article, we will look at the exterior of the church building. In the second part, we'll move inside.

Linda Dabeau has been awarded both national and international commissions in sculpture and liturgical designs.

Her sculptures range from 24 inches to life size and monumental.
