A Clear Path of Discipleship If you’ve ever thought about growing in your faith, or getting involved at Church, you know that it can be a little overwhelming. What class should you join? What ministry to get involved in? Where do I start? There are thousands of great Catholic books, courses, and programs out there. It can be hard to make a decision. You may realize you start a few things, only to get burnt out or frustrated. Church shouldn’t be overwhelming. That’s why we created the Clear Path of Discipleship. We’re trying to make Church simple by providing you with some guidance on your journey of faith. The Clear Path of Discipleship is divided into three steps: Encounter, Grow, Serve. We’ve created and selected a few pivotal classes, programs, and experiences we feel are vitally important.

GROW SERVE
