Inspire and Transform Your Parishioners!
Parish Missions are “mini-retreats” for your parish that inspire, teach, and are a call to action.
It consists of one talk given for three consecutive evenings. Also available is an optional prayer service to follow.
Our Goal
The goal of our Parish Missions is to inspire your parishioners and to deepen and rejuvenate their spiritual lives. These missions help your parishioners to come to a more profound knowledge of God and their faith, and inspire them to live it out both in the parish and in daily life. We also can teach apologetics and evangelization and how to bring people back to church, how to share our faith, and pass it on to others.
There are many possibilities for various themes and talks.
In addition, there is an option to hold an additional night for teens and Confirmation students teens or to have them join us during one or more of the nights.
FIRST EVENING TALK: “WHY DID JESUS HAVE TO DIE?”
This talk presents the inexplicable and incredible love story that unfolds between God and mankind through the person of Jesus Christ. It starts with sin and ends with salvation. This night will help Catholics to fall more in love with Jesus and develop a deeper desire to know Him and serve Him. Challenge your parishioners to consider why they exist, the goal of thier life, and how live as a true disciples of Christ.
SECOND EVENING TALK: “LIFE-CHANGING PRAYER”
This night provides important principles needed to grow a good prayer life. It also it teaches Catholics how to pray, how to connect with God, and how to make prayer effective. This is a practical approach to prayer that works which anybody at any level of faith can employ. It starts with vocal prayer and ends with contemplative prayer. It begins with desire and ends at intimacy with God. Many Catholics have said prayers their whole life but few have found a deep connection with God. This seminar will change that.
THIRD EVENING TALK: “LIVING HOLY IN AN UNHOLY WORLD”
Peter Kreeft once said that the problem with our country is a crisis of Saints. This is a hard-hitting talk about true discipleship and how to become a Saint that changes the world in some way. How do we live holy in an unholy world? How do we live Catholic without compromise in our families, at our job, and in the culture around us? This talk contains practical advice and inspirational stories that challenge us to live radically for Christ and to make a difference in the world.
