Discovering Christ
We offer an experience where anyone and everyone, from the baptized in the pews to the unbaptized, is invited to hear the Good News and personally encounter Jesus Christ, Discovering Christ consists of seven weekly sessions and a retreat day.
The weekly sessions include four components: a meal, prayer time, a video teaching, and small group discussion. The experience is offered at no cost, and includes a Children’s Ministry. Your entire family is welcome to attend!
Discovering Christ has two main goals:
- To help participants enter into or renew a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, experience the love of God the Father, and be empowered by the Holy Spirit to live as God's children.
- To give participants the relational support necessary to begin to live for Christ within the parish and the world.
"You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:13)
Our Aim
We hope to create an experience where anyone can come and encounter Jesus Christ.
