Becoming a Missionary DiscipleThis Lent, please join us for an inspiring five-week journey through the "Becoming Eucharistic Missionaries" series. Over these weekly sessions, we'll view engaging videos and come together in thoughtful discussion to explore how the Eucharist transforms us into living witnesses of Christ's love—empowering us to carry His presence into the world as true missionaries.
Jesus in the Eucharist is the answer to every restless longing of the human heart. If we truly believe this, then that living faith will compel us to share this joy with our brothers and sisters! That's what the third year of the Revival—the Year of Mission—is all about.
The Holy Spirit has enkindled a missionary fire in the heart of our nation, and now he is sending out every member of the Church to spread the Good News—sharing the gift of our Eucharistic Lord with those on the margins. And YOU are invited to be a part of it! -
What is a Eucharistic Missionary?
A Eucharistic Missionary is any Catholic who—inspired by an encounter with Christ in the Eucharist and fueled by the Bread of Life—allows God to use them as an instrument of his grace "for the life of the world."
These missionaries embrace their deepest identity as a member of the Body of Christ and commit to living a Eucharistic life with a heart for those who are most in need, those who are lost, and those who are the "least." They follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit to spread the Gospel by word and deed.
We want to invite you to consider becoming a Eucharistic Missionary within our parish.
A 5-part training will equip you to decide about becoming the missionary our Lord is inviting you to be. This training is designed to be completed in a weekly small-group setting. That being said, it can certainly be completed individually.
Each training module is informative and inspiring -- complete with Eucharistic Missionary formation, testimonies, discussion questions, and a weekly practice. The time has come for us to go forth. Will you answer the call?Dates for Missionary series – Wednesdays

“Anyone who has discovered Christ must lead others to him.
A great joy cannot be kept to oneself. It has to be passed on.”

Revival: Session 1
Begin your journey as a Eucharistic Missionary with the first session of "Become." During this session, we discuss what ongoing revival looks like, how we carry forward the spirit of the National Eucharistic Revival, and two practices that are simple but will radically transform our lives if we take them seriously.
Eucharistic Encounter: Session 2
We all have a story and we are invited into the story of salvation - the Gospel narrative. Through Eucharistic Encounters, we realize the power of this story and the life-changing invitation Jesus offers us through it.
Eucharistic Identity: Session 3
Where are you rooted? Where do you find your identity? As a Eucharistic Missionary, we must place our identity firmly in Christ and refute and lies the world tells us. This session explores how we anchor our lives in the Eucharist and the fruits it will bear.
Eucharistic Life: Session 4
The Eucharist influences every aspect of who we are, including how we choose and are formed by community. This session of formation explores the importance of the communities where we live and how we allow our love for Jesus spill over into and be formed by those around us.
Eucharistic Mission: Session 5
The Eucharist influences every aspect of who we are, including how we choose and are formed by community. This session of formation explores the importance of the communities where we live and how we allow our love for Jesus spill over into and be formed by those around us.
