Ministry

Combining 'The Great Commission' by Jesus (Matthew 28:18-20) with Sherry Weddell's methodology of accepting volunteers with charisms, we propose a theological alignment. This alignment is intentional, as Jesus instructs the Disciples and as a result, the four functions of the Church in today's Parish, creates a unified mission that we all contribute to.

Participation takes different forms according to people’s different gifts and offices, but there is a fundamental obligation arising from the sacrament of Baptism (cf. Pope John Paul II, Christifideles Laici, 15): that people place their gifts, their resources—their selves—at God’s service in and through the Church.

One of the characteristics of volunteer coordination is to support and create a culture of parish volunteerism. We accomplish this by working with parish volunteer leaders and staff members to:

Recruit

Connect

Manage

Retain

Balance ministerial work, rest, and how to prioritize both. In this eLearning module participants will prioritize time to spend with our Lord Jesus Christ while still keeping commitments on Sundays due to obligations.

The Christian mission derives from Matthew 28:1-16 “Go out and make disciples of all nations.” Hefty work, huh? But the mission is not a to-do list.

As you find your path to become a healthy Ministry Worker, growing in your relationship with God is essential. He wants you to be close to Him and grow into what He is preparing you for.

For all those who serve in making the world a better place.

Let's explore the biblical meaning of human interaction. We'll delve into ways we communicate with each other, both verbally and nonverbally, and how these interactions shape our relationships, our perceptions of ourselves and others.
