Mission of the Redeemer

Redemptoris Missio

Mission of the Redeemer

Description: Perfect for the final Mystagogy class of RCIA as a send-off into the mission of the Church. Inspire your Neophytes to get involved in parish life and to help others join the journey of faith. It’s recommended that catechists first read Pope John Paul II’s encyclical Redemptoris Missio in preparing the lesson, but this is not required. This package includes a Commissioning Rite (1-page hand-out) and a Catechist Guide.

Special Note: This is also available as part of the Mystagogy Retreat, “Gifted and Sent”. End the RCIA journey by sending your Neophytes into the bigger journey of walking with Christ in the continuation of his ministry. Empower them to become active participants of the parish and fruitful stewards with their gifts and talents.

Beth Solis, a group facilitator in Oklahoma, says, "Our members asked us in the beginning if we minded taking things slowly so we could have time to really discuss each paragraph. We always have such great discussion! The PPT has been very helpful and is a nice addition."

Feedback from a study group in Florida

Sylvia says, "This experience deepened my love for the Eucharist in ways I couldn’t imagine when we first started this course."

Tim says, "Being the only convert in the group, I ascertained a better and stronger understanding of the importance of the Eucharist, not only in the Mass but also in my daily life."

Jimmy says, "I learned so much about the Eucharist that was powerful and enlightening. This course helped deepen my faith and my appreciation for the Holy Mass."

Erin says, "It was amazing to get everyone’s perspective on the readings. And it deepened my love in the beautiful gift that the Eucharist is to all humanity for our salvation."

Shirley says, "This course was so enlightening. It was a gift that helped me grow in my faith."
