Was the Second Vatican Council the problem or the solution for our times?

Fr. Mark-Mary Ames reflects on the lasting fruits of Vatican II and how its impact is still shaping the Church today. While there are certainly aspects of the Church that can be discouraging, Fr. Mark-Mary explains why he remains deeply hopeful about the future of the Catholic Church.

He points to several powerful signs of renewal:

1. Renewal in Teaching the Scriptures
2. Renewal of Religious Life
3. Renewal in Seminaries
4. Liturgical Renewal
5. Renewal of Catholic Education
6. Renewal in Families
7. Radical Growth in Movements

Even in challenging times, these signs reveal a Church that is alive, growing, and continuing its mission in the world.
