Missionary Disciples Mtg. ----July 6th 1. Shared updates on personal evangelization efforts. 2. Mary’s Mantle Consecration was very helpful to the 30+ persons who participated and brought some back into greater participation in parish life. Mary Jacques will be offering follow-up gatherings on Wed. evenings beginning in August. 3. Would like to get monthly faith testimonies from parishioners at the Masses. Perhaps some from Mary’s Mantel program but also students returning from summer camps and conferences. 4. Fr. John has the report on last year’s faith inventory in our 3 parishes about ready. It was already used in setting the goals we have been working on this past school year. 5. The in-parish “99” retreats last spring went well but follow-up sessions could have had more participants. Those that did the 7 session follow-up are now continuing to meet and view the “Chosen” video series. 6. Discussed the weak attendance at Euch. Adoration and Holy Hour -- will look at time and format adjustments & pray. 7. Fr. John would like to see one or two others visit homes of those who are inactive and will try to make time for this himself. 8. Grief Ministry is no longer happening in Roseau. Fr. John will ask a person in mind to consider taking up this ministry. 9. The parish is working on encouraging more prayer and faith sharing in the home among persons and families. 10. Sat. Nov. 5 there will be a GFAD workshop for our area on the “Art of Accompaniment”. 11. Will look into speakers or mission for our parishes. 12. Next meeting: Sat. Aug. 13 at 8:00 am.
