Reflection Questions
Consider Father Luke Ballman ’ s comment “ Communication is essential to any successful relationship .” How is prayer essential to your relationship with God and others ? Give an example of when prayer guided your pastoral efforts .
How is persistence in prayer necessary ? How does prayer transform us ?
In your diocese or parish , how are parish leaders encouraged or given opportunities to share their faith journey with others ? What types of spiritual formation opportunities does your diocese or parish have for its leadership teams ?
Identify ways in which your parish leadership teams are merely reporting and advising rather than evangelizing . How can be these teams become catalysts toward a more mission-centered approach ?
