Planning for Mission (Parish Level) Phase 1: Leadership Formation for Prayer and Discernment
(Begins after participating in 2025-2026 New Life Regional Leadership Summit.)

Parish leaders will be invited by their pastor (and his Local Parish Planning Team) to an encounter with the Lord in prayer and begin to learn how to use prayer to discern God’s will to carry out the mission in their parish or parish cluster. This phase will be structured as three 90-minute prayer and discernment sessions but could take place over one entire day.

Sessions:
o Authentic Discipleship (Video featuring Bishop Cozzens)
o The Essential Role of Discernment and Prayer for Mission (Video featuring Fr. Tom Niehaus)
o Steps to Becoming a Mission-Centered Parish (Video featuring Dcn. Mark Krejci)
Outcome:
o Parish leaders will be equipped to lead Prayer, Discernment, Feedback Sessions for parish community.
