Discipleship
The Discipleship Pathway is a series of steps that each of us can take in order to keep Jesus at the center of our lives and therefore at the center of our parish. Each step on the pathway is set up to animate the giftedness every child of God, every member of our parish, brings to our community. To support you in your personal walk with Jesus and to enable you to support others along the road. Our aim is for each of us to experience all 5 aspects of this pathway in our lives. So that we can grow as disciples as a parish. So that we can grow in communion with God and with one another.
👋 Encounter
Why do we want to encounter Jesus?
Because we are meant to be in relationship with the Lord, in communion. We all do this in our own time through getting to know Jesus personally, and inviting him to be at the center of our lives, to have a personal relationship with us.
👥 Grow Together
Why do we want to grow together in community?
Because wherever 2 or 3 are gathered in His name, He is there among us. In communion. At youth group we get to grow together in our small group communities, and together as a large community.
✝️ Worship
Why do we worship God?
Because we are literally built for it. We are at our best when we are doing it. We are at the height of our communion when we do that. Especially at mass. Especially through the Eucharist. We need to be intentional. To do that we want our experience of worship on Sundays to be both joyful and reverent. We want to sing with all our hearts, we want the experience to be beautiful, from the time we arrive in the parking lot, to the time we leave. Let’s get to know each other, smile at each other, welcome each other, become one family together, and as one family sing praise to our God, come with expectant hearts, pray together, and experience communion.

🫲 Serve
Why do we serve in the Church?
Because we are supposed to use our gifts to build up the body of Christ. In other words, it strengthens our communion. We have had strong ministries for so many years. But we are going to go further. We are going to help identify the gifts that God has given each of us, and find a ministry that best fits. We aren’t going to just fill holes with warm bodies, we are going to call the gifted, that’s all of you, and find a place where you can thrive in building up Christ’s Body the Church.

🔁 Evangelize
Why do we evangelize in the world?
Because the communion that we enjoy together is meant to be extended to everyone. It’s all about relationships. And that’s where it starts. It starts with our friends. It starts with our families. It starts with our schools and places of work. It starts on the streets with the poor and the homeless. Wherever we can build a relationship, there’s room for evangelization. And when we evangelize, people encounter Jesus, and that brings the Pathway right back around.
It’s all about relationship. It’s all about communion. We start with an actual human need. We start with friendship. We start with food. We start with a roof over someone’s head. And then of course we don’t stop. Because the deepest need of the human heart is the need for God. And so in the context of trust, then we invite all of these people to come and see. And we will help you do this. Because it’s hard. To invite to Alpha, to share how God has worked in your life, to share the core Gospel message. We will help you. And this needs to be built up in our parish.
This is our Discipleship Pathway. Some steps of this pathway encompass ministries, outreaches, and programs already in place at Holy Trinity parish, others will need to be built up in order for us to grow in communion together. In unity together. So that we can embrace our shared mission to make and equip disciples who joyfully go and invite others to Jesus, together. So that we can take a next step on our path of faith together. My hope is that all of us can be doing all of these things. Either for the first time, or in a deeper way.
