Reflections

The SJXXIII Discipleship Apprenticeship Process forms participants in the heart and habit of discipleship. 
Disciples are asked to take a few minutes throughout each week to pray and reflect on aspects of discipleship.  The materials are divided into 9 sessions with weekly reflections provided for each.  The sessions are as follows: 

• The first three sessions focus on growing the heart of the disciple:
  • God’s great love for us
  • The Good News of Jesus Christ
  • Our call to discipleship
• The next 5 focus on growing the habits of discipleship:  community, prayer, scripture, Mass, reconciliation, service.
• You are then invited to reflect and journal aobut the next steps of your personal discipleship call.
• We then explore the values and virtues of a disciple as taught in The Beatitudes, which depicts discipleship characteristics to incorporate into our daily lives.
• We close this process with a message and prayer from the Walking in the Foot Prints of Jesus Discipleship Team.
