Becoming a Parish of Intentional Disciples

In Becoming a Parish of Intentional Disciples, Sherry Weddell, cofounder of the Catherine of Siena Institute, has gathered together experienced leaders and collaborators whose exceptional field-tested wisdom and enthusiasm for transforming Catholic parishes into centers of discipleship and apostolic outreach is both inspiring and practical. The authors consider:

• The role of intercessory prayer in parish transformation
• How "fireside chats" can help a pastor connect with his parishioners and call them to personal discipleship and mission
• The co-responsibility of lay people andpastors in the work of making disciples
• The revolutionary impact of a discipleship approach to youth ministry
• How one parish successfully fostered a culture of intentional discipleship, and much more
