This longest chapter (240-346) on “the Formative Itinerary of Missionary Disciples” concludes its discussion on “Places of Formation” (301-346) with a word of thanks:
346. This Fifth Conference is grateful for the invaluable service provided by various institutions of Catholic education in promoting human development and evangelization of the new generations, and their support to the culture of our peoples, and it encourages dioceses, religious congregations, and organizations of lay Catholics that maintain schools, universities, institutes of higher education and of non-formal training, to continue untiringly in their dedicated and irreplaceable apostolic mission.
For deeper examination, an English translation of the 2007 document from the Aparecida Conference.
