ANNOUNCING A NEW ADULT FAITH FORMATION INITIATIVE DISCIPLESHIP GROUPS
As we begin this new year, we are happy to announce a new Adult Faith Formation initiative, Discipleship Groups. These small groups of 6-15 parishioners will be an opportunity to get to know each other, foster discipleship, pray together, and reflect on God’s word. These groups will also allow us share our faith stories, create community, and live out our mission in the world as disciples of Christ.
We are partnering with Renew International and their new online Small Groups 101: Small Groups Big Impact. Recent studies show that vibrant Catholic parishes consist of small Christian Communities, or small groups, as a vital part of their success.
At this time due to the Covid-19 environment our Discipleship Groups will be virtual using the Zoom platform. We are hoping to have a variety of groups: A men’s group, a number of groups for seniors, a group for millennials, and others. Please look for additional communications regarding this program coming out soon. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out me at mburns@blessedsacramentnj.org.
