Reconstrucción describe la forma en que ambos fueron aplicando a su situación muchas de las prácticas características de las grandes parroquias exitosas y de los empresarios comprometidos con la innovación; y cuenta también cómo establecieron a la Eucaristía como el punto clave de su estrategia, convencidos de su insustituible protagonismo como centro de la fe católica.

Fr. Michael White and lay associate Tom Corcoran present the compelling and inspiring story to how they brought their parish back to life.

"Rebuilt" is a story of stopping everything and changing focus. When their parish reached a breaking point, White and Corcoran asked themselves how they could make the Church matter to Catholics, and they realized the answer was at the heart of the Gospel. Their faithful response not only tripled their weekend mass attendance, but also yielded increased giving, flourishing ministries, and a vibrant, solidly Catholic spiritual revival. White and Corcoran invite all Catholic leaders to share the vision, borrow their strategies, and rebuild their own parishes. They offer a wealth of guidance for anyone with the courage to hear them.
