Joy of Sacramentality

When parents and children approach the church for sacramental preparation, it's a unique teaching moment, a special chance to celebrate the grace that already permeates their lives.

Finally we'll understand what St. Augustine meant when he said, "there is nothing that cannot become a sacramental encounter." This session should be helpful for parents, catechists, and those involved in sacramental initiation.

The Witness Webinar: Learning to Tell the Stories of Grace that Illumine Our Lives
IALM
Dr. Leonard DeLorenzo
Ave Maria Press
Recent research shows that the single greatest difference between those who identify as Catholic and those as former-Catholics is "the belief that God is a personal being involved in the lives of people today." If we are to shape our whole lives as a Christian story, we must first learn how to recognize, craft, and share stories of grace about particular life experiences. We will focus on seven principles for crafting stories of grace for teens, young adults, and even not-so-young-anymore adults that allow us to speak of God's action in our lives persuasively and in real terms.

There is a lot of talk in the Church today about the “new evangelization.” But what exactly is it? And why, really, should we engage in it? There are many reasons given for its importance but one of the most important is rarely mentioned: many peoples’ eternal salvation is at stake. In the climate of a vague “universalism” which presumes that virtually everybody will be saved, what does Vatican II really teach about this most important reality?

Four Factors that Make Marriage Preparation a Success

John and Teri Bosio

The best measure of success for a marriage preparation program is the faith, the attitudes, and the behaviors that engaged couples take into their marriage. Among the activities that correlate positively with marital success, according to the social scientists at the National Marriage Project, are a couple’s belief that God is at the center of their marriage and their regular church attendance together. How important is regular church attendance? Dr. Bradford Wilcox writes in a 2016 reports published by the Institute for Family Studies that 78% of couples that attend church together regularly are very or extremely happy in marriage. So, how do you get couples to come to Mass on Sundays after they get married? In this webinar, marriage experts and authors of the Joined by Grace books, will examine four factors in marriage preparation that instill the attitudes and behaviors necessary to make marriage preparation successful.

The Witness Webinar: Learning to Tell the Stories of Grace that Illumine Our Lives
IALM
Dr. Leonard DeLorenzo
Ave Maria Press
Recent research shows that the single greatest difference between those who identify as Catholic and those as former-Catholics is "the belief that God is a personal being involved in the lives of people today." If we are to shape our whole lives as a Christian story, we must first learn how to recognize, craft, and share stories of grace about particular life experiences. We will focus on seven principles for crafting stories of grace for teens, young adults, and even not-so-young-anymore adults that allow us to speak of God's action in our lives persuasively and in real terms.

Communication is fundamental to our human experience. When it comes to the parish, being able to effectively share a message is a vitally important work.

Our message matters now more than ever.

In the General Introduction to the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, the role of the Godparent and Sponsor in initiation is mentioned before the role of the bishop, priests, deacons and catechists! Because the Church considers the role of the Godparent and Sponsor to be central to initiation, it is imperative that we choose them wisely and well and train them for their essential role in initiation. This workshop will examine what the rite says about the role of the Godparents and Sponsors and how we can prepare them for and sustain them in this important ministry.

The Start of Something Big – Preparing Youth for Confirmation
IAT5
Tom East
NFCYM
Confirmation is the start of something big! This sacrament should awaken a young person’s experience of Baptism and point them toward our sharing in Eucharist. Confirmation should strengthen youth for their journey of discipleship and for active participation in the faith community. Too often, the sacrament is the end instead of the beginning. The end of catechesis; the end of practice of the faith; the end of family support for faith engagement; and the end of participating in the parish. We can change the way we help youth prepare for and live out their Confirmation as a beautiful gift from God. This webinar presents an understanding and history of the Sacrament of Confirmation that is based on our Church’s teachings and documents. We will also explore what it means to prepare youth and families for Confirmation using Accompaniment as our ministry model.

Four Factors that Make Marriage Preparation a Success
IAT5
John and Teri Bosio
Ave Maria Press
The best measure of success for a marriage preparation program is the faith, the attitudes, and the behaviors that engaged couples take into their marriage. Among the activities that correlate positively with marital success, according to the social scientists at the National Marriage Project, are a couple’s belief that God is at the center of their marriage and their regular church attendance together. How important is regular church attendance? Dr. Bradford Wilcox writes in a 2016 reports published by the Institute for Family Studies that 78% of couples that attend church together regularly are very or extremely happy in marriage. So, how do you get couples to come to Mass on Sundays after they get married? In this webinar, marriage experts and authors of the Joined by Grace books, will examine four factors in marriage preparation that instill the attitudes and behaviors necessary to make marriage preparation successful.

When parents and children approach the church for sacramental preparation, it's a unique teaching moment, a special chance to celebrate the grace that already permeates their lives.

Finally we'll understand what St. Augustine meant when he said, "there is nothing that cannot become a sacramental encounter." This session should be helpful for parents, catechists, and those involved in sacramental initiation.

Reading the Hebrew Bible with Jesus

The library of books we call the Hebrew Bible or the "Old Testament" was the only bible Jesus knew, but modern Christians often struggle to make sense of it. The narratives come from a time and place so far from our own that one might wonder if they have continuing value for modern believers. Paying attention to the passages that captivated the mind of Jesus, however, reveals just how powerful a source of revelation the Hebrew Bible continues to be.

IAC
Dr. Daniella Zsupan-Jerome
Sadlier/NCCL
In our first Sadlier/NCCL webinar, Daniella Zsupan-Jerome invites you to consider our digital culture beyond what’s available today.

Daniella Zsupan-Jerome, PhD is Professor of Pastoral Theology at Notre Dame Seminary Graduate School of Theology in New Orleans and a consultant for the USCCB Committee on Communication. She is the author of Connected Toward Communion: The Church and Social Communication in the Digital Age published by Liturgical Press.
