BRIGHETI, Agenor. Addressing both the New Evangelization and pastoral conversion from the Church in Latin America and the Caribbean: uma abordagem desde a Igreja na América Latina e no Caribe. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2013, vol.63, n.176, pp.331-366. ISSN 0120-3649.

The need for a "New Evangelization" is a topic of outermost importance given the challenge of keeping the spirit and relevance of the message of the Gospel. The origin of this expression lies in a speech given by Pope John Paul II. Nevertheless, the concept of "New Evangelization " has already appeared at the Conference in Medellín to express the need to carry out the renovation proposed by the Second Vatican Council. Additionally, the most faithful translation for the evangelic demand of a new evangelization is the term "pastoral conversion", coined at the Conference in Santo Domingo and retaken at the Conference in Aparecida.

Palabras clave : Evangelization; Christendom; modernity; Second Vatican Council; Aparecida.
