Go Make Disciples

When Bishop Hying visited Watertown for a three-night event, he presented reflections on the life-changing power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, looking at  the core beliefs of our faith in the Lord and how we live them out in today's world. If you weren't able to join us - or you would like to review what you learned - we invite you to view the recorded talks from each evening to help you grow in your understanding of the Gospel and the call to be disciples

Creation.  Capture.  Rescue.  Response.  Sound familiar?  If you were able to attend our recent Mission with Bishop Hying, you heard him talk about the Kerygma - the Proclamation of the Gospel, the Good News. We learned first that we were created to be in relationship with God and destined for eternal glory.  When we questioned that relationship, and whether or not God really had our best interests at heart, we were captured in our sin and separated ourselves from God. The Gospel goes on, however, to share the story of how God rescued us by his birth, death and resurrection. Finally, we were asked: “If this is our story, how do we respond?”

That response is what we are focusing on in the Bishop’s Go Make Disciples initiative. For a deeper look at what the Good News means to us as Catholics, watch Fr. John Riccardos’s Someone Has Come to Fight/The Kerygma on YouTube, or Chris Stefanick’s Kerygma: The Message That Changed the World on Formed.org.  Links are available below. 

Finally, consider sharing any of these resources with someone who might benefit from these messages of hope.  In that way, you are sharing in the missionary discipleship that Bishop Hying has challenged us to be a part of!
