Missionary Discipleship Institute Feb 2021

Thursday February 11

7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

The John Paul II Center invites you to come be equipped for a life of mission as we explore ways to invite others to know Jesus' love for them and find their place in his mission to love and transform our world.

Whether you are a new leader, a leader-in-training, or a veteran leader wanting a refresher on best practices, particularly in light of current uncertain circumstances, these workshops offer inspiration, training, and networking with other leaders from around the Archdiocese.

Sessions are offered live and interactive through Zoom. Brought to you free of charge by the Catholic Stewardship Appeal. Thank you for giving generously.

Impact Sessions

The Anatomy of a Catholic Disciple with Margaret Rhody
As Church leaders, we often hear that we are "called to be disciples" and "to make disciples", but what does this actually look like? Learn the inner workings of living and teaching discipleship based on Sacred Scripture, the Catechism, and the General Directory of Catechesis.
Evangelizing Apologetics with Doug Ulaszek
At some time, all of us are in a situation where someone speaks about the Catholic faith in a questioning, confused, or hostile way. This calls for apologetics which is simply the “defense of the faith.” This impact session will explore how to prepare for and practice evangelizing apologetics, with specific practice on some of today’s most disputed Church Teachings.
Knowing the Mission Field: Being on Mission in a 21st Century Context with Andre Lesperance
Our world is full of "-isms" that greatly affect our thoughts on who God is and who we are as his sons and daughters. This impact session will focus on knowing the prevailing cultural milieu and how to respond in an evangelizing way.

We'd like to send you email updates from the Office of Evangelization about future events like this one.

No, I prefer not to get updates or I already receive them.
