EQUIP

After accepting Christ, it’s essential to “build” them in the Faith. This involves regular formation, fostering prayer, fellowship, sacraments, and teachings (Acts 2:42). These habits deepen their friendship with Christ, helping them become more like Him. We model the Christian life, praying, and serving together, gradually teaching them to lead others. 

We identify leaders using the FACT criteria: Faithful, Available, Contagious, and Teachable. We invite these individuals to participate in evangelization, understanding its importance and their role in it. 

In this stage of discipleship, we invite the person to participate in CCO Faith studies - Growth and Source. These faith studies invites the participant to accept Jesus as Lord and invites them into a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. 

Following these faith studies, and discernment of the leadership team, the participant is invited to do the third faith study called 'Commission'. This faith studies delves into the richness of the encyclicals of the Popes on Mission and Evangelisation. It explains how we are all called to mission, in big ways and small ways. 

Following the CCO faith studies, the participant is invited to do Genesis. This is a 7 week course, for 1.5 hours a week. It is done either in person or via zoom. The Genesis Mission is a method of teaching people how to evangelize.
