Too often we relegate parish hospitality to the few minutes immediately before or after Sunday liturgy. If we are willing to reimagine our understanding of hospitality, however, we begin to realize that welcoming others is more than bulletins and donuts (as important as those are!). Welcome All as Christ offers concrete suggestions for implementing a holistic approach to parish hospitality, grounded in St. Benedict’s invitation to “Welcome all as Christ” and set amid the pastoral realities of today’s church.

John T. Kyler is a Catholic author, educator, and speaker whose work focuses on the intersection of liturgy, justice, and healthy vulnerability in pastoral ministry. An instructor in the Emmaus Institute for Ministry Formation and a regular contributor to several pastoral magazines and journals, John holds a master of education from the University of Notre Dame and a master of theological studies from Saint John’s University.
