Greetings!
With baptism, we are all called to participate in the mission of Jesus. But how many Catholics are aware of this and formed for mission, whether at home or around the world?
One of the first things Jesus did with his disciples was to send them out in pairs to do what he did. To do mission. Jesus passed this mission on to his disciples and for almost two thousand years the mission has passed down from generation to generation.
We are excited to offer a Mission Education Training Session for teachers, principals, DREs, lay ecclesial ministers, catechists, deacons and priests. Incorporate a stronger sense of mission into your ministerial identity and spirituality. Develop skills and resources to integrate into your ministry and programs. Help your students and parishioners come alive in their faith as you animate and support them in their calling to take part in the mission of Jesus.
Four two-hour sessions over the course of the weekend at our Maryknoll Regional Center in San Lorenzo. Overnight accommodations available.
- Session 1: Scriptural and Historical Foundations of Mission
- Session 2: Models and Methods of Mission Today, Maryknoll History and Charism
- Session 3: Basics of a Mission Education
- Session 4: Developing and Implementing Mission Education Components
Each participant will receive a Mission Resource Kit, including the book, "What is the Mission of the Church?," sample posters and study guides, DVDs and more.
