Father Bertrand’s program is based on the recommendations of the world’s bishops gathered at the Second Vatican Council. Come, Lord Jesus! will bring you closer to God, help you talk to him in prayer, enrich your reading of Scripture and move you to share the treasure of your faith with others.” ….”I am certain that the main reason for the extraordinary power of the Come, Lord Jesus! program is its ability to form and strengthen communities in Christian love.

Come, Lord Jesus! gives a plan, an outline, and a method of coming into a strong and vibrant way of drawing closer to Jesus Christ. I am happy to commend this program to you, and I recommend that you study the volume and follow the directions of the method. Let your hearts be open to all the possible ways of growing in the love of God through this beautiful Come, Lord Jesus! program.

“It is my wish that Come, Lord Jesus! groups be established everywhere, in every parish. I encourage parish priests to support and welcome their formation. No one thirsting for God and His grace should lack the opportunity Come, Lord Jesus! offers.”

I want you to know that I deeply respect both you, Father Bertrand, and the program. I think it is Scripturally-oriented, eminently orthodox, full of common sense, and at the same time deeply spiritual…Participation in the Come, Lord Jesus! program has been found to be of great spiritual advantage to many of our people, and I encourage more and more people and parishes to become involved.
