Solemn charge

CFC GMA Solemn Charge Echo Conference

Asian Institute of Technology
Conference Center
Saturday, 9 June 2018

Our theme for 2018, the 2nd letter of Timothy, was written by Paul while in prison in Rome. Paul knew that his ministry was coming to an end and this pastoral epistle depicts his courage and hope in the face of discouragements. It points to his preaching of the gospel as a reason for his imprisonment and he offers Timothy, as a motive for steadfastness, his own examples of firmness in faith despite adverse circumstances. The letter suggests that Timothy should prepare others to replace him as Paul has prepared him.
As our journey continues, the Holy Spirit is giving us through this last of the pastoral epistles a roadmap on the work of a pastor or shepherd in caring for the community under his solemn charge. We are reminded as well to stir into flame the gift of God – the fire of “first love” in our faith encounter with him.
