Maximize Your Impact with Deeper Formation

Making Disciples Workshops (101, 201)

MD 101 is a prerequisite that lays the foundation focusing on deeper understanding of the thresholds of conversion and current religious landscape as discussed in the book Forming Intentional Disciples.

MD 201, often called “Kerygma Boot Camp,” equips leaders to proclaim the Great Story of Jesus with clarity and confidence—one-on-one, in small groups, and in retreat settings for all ages.

Generation of Saints: A Comprehensive Formation Journey

Ananias Training, Making Disciples, and the Forming Intentional Disciples book study are all core components of our two-year Generation of Saints process—a comprehensive formation initiative for parish or diocesan teams inspired by the 17th-century French generation of saints.

Unlike Making Disciples Workshops on their own, Generation of Saints is designed to form both parish ministry leaders and parishioners from the pews together, preparing everyone to fully engage with the deeper formation offered in Making Disciples when they reach that stage. This journey equips teams to foster personal faith, form intentional disciples, and build a lasting culture of apostolic mission.
