As you know better than me, the phrase “wall of separation” appears nowhere in the Constitution and still less in the Bill of Rights. Rather, it originates in an 1802 letter that Thomas Jefferson wrote to the Danbury (CT) Baptist Association whose members had written to him complaining that their religious freedom and rights of conscience were eclipsed by the established church in Connecticut, the Congregationalist Church (which would remain the established Church in CT until 1819).

Archbishop Lori’s Remarks: Pastoral Staff Day

It turns out that the evangelization might not be as complicated as we think and the steps we need to take to evangelize effectively are not out of reach; nor are the people we are trying to evangelize as tough to reach as we might think. The good news is that many of the reasons why Catholics stay away are in our control. So, let us not be fatalists who succumb to the tyranny of the inevitable. Rather let us lift up our hearts and open them to the Holy Spirit who says, “Be not afraid” and who helps us do those things we may sometime regard as impossible.
