It’s the Reformation all over again!!

Reformation is defined as "improvement, alteration for the better," c.1425, from L. reformationem, noun of action from reformare .
Reform is defined as “change to a better state, form, etc.; improve by alteration, substitution, abolition, etc.” OR Chemistry, to subject to the process of reforming, as in refining petroleum.
LCPJ is changing. This is not a process that can, apparently, be stopped. It is, however, a process that can allow us – all of us – to define the change to be what we, the community and the nation needs it to be.
The more ideas,
the more varied the viewpoints,
