Omnes presents the online course "Church Support". With the help of Diego Zalbidea, professor of Canon Law and expert in Canon Patrimonial Law, Omnes offers for free on its YouTube channel a series of 9 videos in which Professor Zalbidea explains the importance of the co-responsibility as a lifestyle born of gratitude.

The aim of the course is to inspire priests and pastors to manage resources with the "joy of the faithful" in mind, being responsible stewards of goods. As Diego Zalbidea explains, this is because stewardship is nothing more than "the awareness of giving back to the Church the good that God pours out through her."

The videos are between 20 and 30 minutes long and are structured around nine themes:

  • Rediscovering generosity
  • Grateful remembrance. The gift of the Eucharist
  • An offering from the heart. Lessons from a poor widow
  • The gift of trust. Learning from talents
  • The fruits of stewardship in the Church
  • Gratitude and generosity in the support of the Church
  • Inspiration and stewardship of the gifts of the Church
  • Gratuitousness and canonical patrimonial law
  • Custody of gifts and shared gratuity

The "Sustaining the Church" course is now fully available on the playlist from the Omnes YouTube channel.
