Formation Days on Mission & Evangelisation

We have arranged a formation day for parish teams which will provide an opportunity to meet together and reflect on what it is to be missionary and what we mean by discipleship. The days will be led by Fr Gerard Kelly and will give people a chance to meet with other parish teams to share ideas and any concerns. There will be a chance for questions in the afternoon. Most importantly, the day will be a time of reflection where we can consider the part that the Holy Spirit plays in all that we are doing. Evangelisation must touch our hearts, becoming the engine that drives us forward in our mission, it is the Holy Spirit who gives us the courage to advance.

An additional day has been arranged due to high demand.

Divine Renovation Workshops with Fr James Mallon

Wednesday 9th May 2018 | Holy Trinity Brompton Church, London

Father James Mallon’s best-selling book has stirred up a vision and passion for parish renewal across the globe.

But how do you actually make the transformation happen in your parish? Join Fr James and other parishes on the Divine Renovation journey for a practical day that will include times of prayer and worship led by Youth 2000.

Explore what’s involved in the earliest stages and hear from parishes that have already begun. The day will involve a “hands on” approach that will equip you to go back to your parish and begin your own journey. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you read ‘Divine Renovation: Bringing your Parish from Maintenance to Mission’ beforehand.

The day will most benefit parishes where priest and lay parishioners can attend and plan together. It is open to people of all denominations who have a heart for the renewal of the local church.

The day is free of charge. Lunch will not be provided.

“The joy of the Gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus. Those who accept his offer of salvation are set free from sin, sorrow, inner emptiness and loneliness”

Pope Francis, Evangelii Gaudium
