Parish Retreats & Missions

We build relationships with the leadership teams at parishes, dioceses, schools and help you discern your next best step toward creating a culture of intentional discipleship.  Every community's goals, gifts, and demographics are a little different, and every path is a little different.  We can help YOUR team find YOUR path.  

There is no single program, book, DVD series, or process that will fit your community’s specific charisms and culture.  We provide encouragement and accountability, help uncover resources, and facilitate discussions that can create a concrete path for mission that works for YOU.  

Because we know that one size does NOT fit all, the leadership equipping process is tailored to fit YOUR team.  


 
Not sure where to begin? Don't have a solid leadership team? 

We can help you identify, call & form leaders.

Need to get your existing staff & councils focused on mission?  

We'll get you all moving in the same direction.

Struggling to break through unresolved tension or unhealthy team dymanics?  

We have experience with change management & conflict resolution.  

  

dangerous to go alone memeWe believe it is through the art of accompaniment - walking with pople, meeting them where they are at and sharing in their joys and sorrows and steadily witnessing to the power of Jesus Christ in our own lives - that we can not only make disciples of Jesus, but we can also become more fully His disciples ourselves.

We are committed to walking with you, your leaders, and your entire community as we seek to know Jesus and His Church together.  The work of evangelization is, above all, relational.  To walk with you on your communitiy's journey of discipleship, whether it is for just one retreat or event or for a long term relationship of growth together, is the heart of our mission.

  • Everyone shared from their hearts...

    I talked to most of our staff about how they felt about the workshop. Overall, our staff thought it was great. The best comment I received was that they were not expecting to be vulnerable going into it. However, once everyone shared from their hearts, it allowed this individual to feel safely vulnerable.

    Personally, I thought I was doing a good job of being my true self. However, the feedback I received was that folks were surprised by my answers. Hopefully, I can use this as a reminder to be more open on a daily basis. Thanks again for your time and sharing your talents with our parish staff!

  • Changed my thinking on what's next

    Thanks for a very real perspective from a lay person.  

    [Kristin's] witness was very inspiring, she was easy to understand and brought up helpful ideas for what a relationhsip with Jesus could be and how to worship.  

    Her message and mission was insightful and changed my thinking on what's next.

  • I love how it was customized to my life.

    Instead of the group leader deciding what he wanted to discuss, I was able to get personal growth in areas I expressed wanting additional knowledge in.  I loved how it was customized to my life.  Our sessions together really touched on all areas of our faith, and shined a light on areas that I personally wasn't as tune in with.

  • "I wasn't planning to stay, but I couldn't leave!"

    I have been to many conferences and talks in the past 18 years as a DRE.  This was the BEST!  I have heard all the great speakers including Dr. Sri, Scott Hahn, and Jeff Cavins; Kristin is very much as good or better.  I wasn't planning to stay for the entire day.  I was going to help out with hospitality and then go do other work - but I couldn't leave!   Thank you!

  • "You encouraged me to pursue my own healing"

    I’ve been thinking about the witness on your family you shared at the Discipleship Formation Seminar I and I am so thankful that you did. It struck me so profoundly and beautifully, that I am still thinking about it. Your courage and the way you were able to simply be honest really resonated with me and my own family, so thank you. Thank you for being willing to share it because it encouraged me to pursue my own healing. It still has a long way to go, but it’s on its way.
