“Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.”
Matthew 28:19
In March of 2017, the diocese created an Office of Evangelization & Discipleship. With direction from an advisory council and consultation with the Priests’ Council, the Evangelization office launched a four year plan entitled, Living as Missionary Disciples. This plan was divided into four parts:
-
- Encounter | Prayer | Come and See
Building an Atmosphere of Trust and Openness
- Encounter | Prayer | Come and See
-
- Accompany | Evangelization | Follow Me
Proclaiming the Name of Jesus and Encountering the Lord
- Accompany | Evangelization | Follow Me
-
- Community | Discipleship | Remain in Me
Growing, Maturing and Discerning
- Community | Discipleship | Remain in Me
-
- Send | Missionary Discipleship | Go & Make Disciples
Leading and Forming
- Send | Missionary Discipleship | Go & Make Disciples
Today, the Office of Evangelization & Discipleship offers a variety of parish and staff retreats and resources to help further our call to live as Missionary Disciples.
