Missionary Discipleship Basics

Missionary discipleship is the heart of the Christian life. Every baptized person is called not only to follow Jesus, but to help others encounter Him. This section introduces what it means to live as a disciple who is formed, sent, and sustained by Christ and His Church. These courses lay the foundation for understanding our identity as disciples, God’s mission for the world, and our personal role in that mission. Whether you are just beginning your faith journey or looking to renew it, these sessions will help you move from simply “knowing about” Jesus to actively living and sharing your faith

From Mystery to Mission The Eucharist in the Life of the Church

What does it mean to be a Eucharistic missionary? How do we live every dimension of our lives in light of the Eucharist? In this experience of formation, participants will be invited to consider the mystery of the Eucharist as an opportunity for greater witness to the reality of God’s love in the world. Bishop Daniel Flores will lead participants through this period of self-reflection, one that culminates in creating your own plan for being a Eucharistic missionary moving forward. You’ll certainly learn about the Eucharist in this course, but equally importantly, you’ll re-discover your mission to live Eucharistically–no matter your age or vocation.
