A Discipleship Parish-Renewal Experience
Be My Witness
It only takes a spark to start a fire.
We are called to bear witness to something GREATER than ourselves. Be My Witness is an engaging and interactive experience that illuminates the path closer to God and ignites the flames of evangelization.

Engage and Impact Parishioners
Jesus's call was simple: be my witnesses! We are all called to bear witness to a constantly new way of living together in fidelity to the gospel. Be My Witness is not just an experience it is an embodiment of hope, a reservoir of profound transformation, and a testament to the power of faith in action.
If you wish to make your parish more welcoming and vibrant, we hope you will explore Be My Witness, which is also available in Spanish as Sean mis testigos. It’s an emotional journey and a powerful response to the church’s clarion call for a new evangelization.
The Journey of Be My Witness
The 12 sessions of the Be My Witness experience take participants through three key stages:
A personal experience of being evangelized
An exploration of evangelizing methods and the attitudes and behaviors of missionary disciples
A recognition of the potential for transforming society - the small, but significant ways that our words and actions can bring the presence of Christ into the world through the social ministry of the church
