Strategic Planning for Evangelization | DISCIPLESHIP COMPASS

Father, the staff, and I have been recounting all the blessings from the AWESOME evening you spent with us! Thank you for being a huge part of this evening, for sharing your gifts of teaching and storytelling, for giving us a reason to laugh and cry with you, and for connecting us to Jesus in the Eucharist. Words can’t express how grateful we are to you! Personally, I had on my director hat, but I was knocked over with the prayer you lead. 

The parents who attended were able to connect with your stories and I could hear them giggling. Shared experiences are so powerful. Thank you for sharing of yourself and our Catholic faith!  The Holy Spirit is swirling around us.

It was a wonderful Parish Mission. Even more than I was expecting. I have heard wonderful feedback. I felt the Holy Spirit at work in my heart each night and I'm feeling a peace and hope that I wasn't even aware I lacked. Thank you! I will pass along the resources.

Thank you so much for your awesome service to our diocese as a keynote presenter for our Ministry Days last week! What a blessing it was to have you in the diocese for our gathering – we are truly grateful!  I have been the lead staff person for Ministry Days for many years, and we have consistently used a five-point scale for assessing our speakers, facilities, organization/hospitality, etc. Your mark of “4.80” is truly one of the two or three highest for a speaker that I can remember over these past 20+ years. So, again, thanks for your great witness and work during our days!

Not only have I heard from almost everyone who was there how good it was and how they thought it was the best retreat yet, there have been tangible fruits in our parish because of this mission. On the final night of the Mission/Retreat, those present had an opportunity to be prayed with. Everyone I spoke with who was there expressed that they truly felt the presence of the Holy Spirit.

Since that powerful night, I personally have heard of two people who were physically healed that night—or at least symptoms they experienced daily have suddenly disappeared since that encounter of our Lord. I firmly believe though that everyone who was there was healed in some way- particularly spiritually- the most important healing.

One of the BEST programs I have ever taken part in!!!! Can't wait until the next session!  I left with a new way of looking at Church.  If you ever have the opportunity to go - do it!!
