MISSIONARIES OF FRIENDSHIP
Who are the 4-5 people you can personally invest in to help them grow closer to Jesus through Mary? Look first to your own family and then to friends and loved ones. Pray about who could use your help growing closer to God. Then reach out and invite them into your home and share life together. Just do the things you usually do and invite your family and friends to do it with you. Extend to them hospitality and ask them questions about their life, joys, and struggles. Be a good listener and ask how you can pray for them or their intentions. Then follow-up and check in with them to see how they are doing and how that prayer intention turned out. By asking good questions, listening carefully then asking good follow up questions we gain trust and demonstrate to our family and friends that they are known, understood, loved and appreciated.

Discipleship
The life of a Christian must be one of prayer and sacraments, conversion from vice to virtue, fulfillment of the responsibilities of our life and – Apostolate – meaning, taking an active role in helping others to God. In this we cannot be spectators – we must be players!
