Your parish filled with enthusiastic

worshippers?

Lapsed Catholics returning to the

practice of faith?

Growth in stewardship and giving?

Parents actively passing on the faith to their children?

Faith formation classes filled with eager participants?

New ministry leaders?

More priestly and religious vocations?

A vibrant, life-changing RCIA process?

Making Disciples is a four-day workshop that trains parish leaders to foster

an awakening of personal faith in Christ and intentional discipleship.

The evangelizing awareness and

skills learned in Making Disciples

are being used by diocesan and

parish leaders as part of Catholics

Come Home outreaches, in RCIA,

evangelization, young adult and

campus ministry, gifts and

vocational discernment, and in

nearly any kind of ministry

situation imaginable.

These skills are also being used

by Catholics with family,

friends, and co-workers

in secular settings.

How intentional discipleship differs from and

fosters Catholic identity and is the source of

the spiritual life and foundation of effective

pastoral ministry.

How discipleship makes catechesis a life-

changing experience.

How to introduce post-modern people to

Jesus and the Church.

How to recognize pre-discipleship stages of

spiritual growth and facilitate spiritual growth

in the baptized and non-baptized.

How you and your parishioners can share your

own personal witness ad the “Great Story” of

Jesus in gentle, intriguing, and non-

threatening ways.

How the charisms help spiritual seekers make

the journey to intentional discipleship.

How parish based evangelization processes

and other existing parish programs can help

create a parish culture of discipleship.

How to integrate these evangelizing skills and

concepts into the full spectrum of parish life

and ministry.

Of course you would…

But how do you

make It happen?
