This is the sixth part of a six-week series about how we gently and lovingly share our faith with others. In this presentation, Fr. Andrew pulls together a pattern of life that empowers us to become real and approachable witnesses for Christ. In particular:

  • Cultivate our Spiritual life and grow closer to the Lord
  • Cultivate our relationships and grow closer to one another
  • Listen with a prayerful heart to the people in our lives
  • Discover the people, opportunities and resources that foster faith
  • Respond with conviction when others “open the door” in conversation
