Welcome to The Way
An experience that helps disciples make disciples and find a path towards enhanced vibrancy.
About
A Journey Towards Renewal and Vitality
It is time to consider a new “way” for ministry that will help transform the culture of our communities here in the Archdiocese of St. Louis.
Archbishop Mitchell T. Rozanski recently shared, “We’ve been using the wrong metrics to measure vibrancy.” Rather than considering hard facts and objective data to measure our “success,” it is time to introduce a new, synodal, mission-oriented approach that requires intentional accompaniment, not intensive programming.
This is not a quick fix….it is a shift of mode that can take up to three to five years of discernment and implementation.
Disciples make disciples.
We are looking to build the muscle for a relational mode of ministry that is rooted in listening and discernment. The goal is to help our parishes and ministries formulate a clear vision rooted in evangelization.
This process will motivate and encourage creativity in identifying a unique path of discipleship for each of our faith communities in St. Louis and its surrounding areas.
