Proclaim God’s own words through the words of Scripture and realize that in and through us God speaks to the gathered faithful. Understand that the Word of God is not merely read: it is proclaimed and effective proclamation involves the delivery of the message with clarity, conviction and appropriate pace, by improving our ability to evoke faith in others by demonstrating our own faith. Prepare ourselves from a spiritual, scriptural and practical point of view. Be God's chosen instrument and communicate the word of the Lord.
