  • Three Phases | Three Key Questions

    • 1. Forming Leadership

      Since Pentecost 2020
      What are we doing to form parish leadership as missionary disciples?
      • Faith Formation
      • Spiritual Formation
      • Missionary Formation
    • Calling the 12

    • And he went up on the mountain, and called to him those whom he desired; and they came to him. And he appointed twelve, to be with him, and to be sent out to preach and have authority to cast out demons. ~Mark 3:13-15

    • 2. Seeking Holiness

      Since Advent 2021
      What are we doing to help our parishioners grow in holiness?
      • Daily Prayer
      • Reclaiming Sunday
      • Friday Penance
      • Frequent Confession
    • Equipping the 72

    • After this the Lord appointed seventy [two] others, and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to come. And he said to them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest." ~Luke 10:1-2

    • 3. Witnessing to Christ

      Starting Advent 2022
      What are we doing to send our parishioners forth as witnesses of Jesus Christ?
      • In the Church (within the parish)
      • In the World (beyond the walls of the parish)
    • Sending the 120

    • In those days Peter stood up among the brethren (the company of persons was in all about a hundred and twenty)... When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly a sound came from heaven like the rush of a mighty wind... And there appeared to them tongues as of fire... And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. ~Acts 1:15; 2:1-4

    • How Does It Work?

      Evangelization Team

      Beginning with Phase 1 in 2020, Bishop Hying has asked every Pastor to form an Evangelization Team to help him in fulfilling the mission of Go Make Disciples.

      Parish Evangelization Plan

      Beginning with Phase 2 in 2021, the Bishop has asked every Parish to formulate an individual Parish Evangelization Plan built around the specific goals of Go Make Disciples: forming leadership, seeking holiness, and preaching the Gospel.

      Annual Review and Revision

      Beginning with Phase 3 in 2022, the Bishop is asking every Parish for an annual review of how its Plan was implemented in the previous year and a revision of its plan for the coming year.

      Diocesan Support

      Diocesan staff members are assigned to every parish to support and assist in the formulation, implementation, review, and revision of Parish Evangelization Plans.

        Where everything else fits in
        JANESVILLE — Currently, St. Patrick Parish in Janesville is in the midst of a capital campaign to restore the interior of its church. This renovation seeks not only to repair structures that were falling apart but to restore beauty. Some might ask what this has to do with Go Make Disciples. Isn’t the church building some separate thing to evangelization and catechesis?

        MONONA — “I think that it was an incredible experience and one that no one is going to forget any time soon,” said Rebekah Scaperlanda about the parish mission held at Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) Parish in Monona earlier this month. Scaperlanda is the middle and high school catechesis coordinator at IHM and recently took the role of team lead for Go Make Disciples at the parish.

        Pray-a-thon
        JANESVILLE — The days of March 30 to April 1 marked a time of generosity and faith as more than 600 people came to pray at St. John Vianney Parish in Janesville. The reason was the inaugural St. John Pray-A-Thon, a marathon of prayer designed to draw attention to the importance of prayer by both inviting people to pray in the church and gathering people’s intentions to be prayed for.

        WISCONSIN DELLS — “It looks small because it starts small,” said Elizabeth Monaghan, describing the work she’s been doing since taking the position of Director of Apostolic Mission at St. Cecilia Parish in Wisconsin Dells. She started her position there on August 1 and has spent the last several months forming lay leaders who will then go on to form their own small group apostolates.
