A collection of resources about becoming and living as a disciple.
Disciples of Jesus embrace service as an integral part of their lifelong faith journey.
The New Testament is filled with colorful characters who offer keen insights into the meaning of Christian discipleship. How can these followers be guides for us today?
Resources designed to help participants understand the meaning of missionary discipleship and to reflect on what actions they need to take to live out the call to be disciples of Jesus Christ.
The purpose of this activity is to remind us that we are all different parts of the body of Christ, and the body must work together in the world. It is appropriate as either a lenten or Easter season activity. It is an excellent family activity in preparation for First Eucharist. • By Kathleen O'Connell Chesto
