Jesus is the Way for us to Follow. This program can be adapted to various workshops on discipleship.

1. Jesus
reveals
the
Father

2. Paul,
servant of
the
mystery
made
known by
revelation.

3. This is what I pray:
In the abundance of his
Father’s glory may he,
through his Spirit,
enable you to grow
with regard to your
inner self, so that
Christ may live in your
hearts through faith…

4. The call to be a
Christian is a
call to grow.
Usually we hear
warnings against
doing things.
The Call of Christ, on
the other hand, is a
call to journey, to
advance.

5. Early Christians called
themselves “followers of
the Way.” The word
“Disciple” is linked to the
word “to follow” over 70
times in the gospels.

6. Paul knew this as Jesus
broke into his life on
the way to Damascus.
Paul was a traveler.
Our journey begins
when we are grasped by
God who takes us in the
direction of our true self.
We are called to life in
the Trinity.

7. It is God who has called you to
share the life of his Son. 1 Cor. 1:9
me Paul
JESUS

8. As Mary
we respond:
“May it be
done as you
have said.
My soul
glorifies
the Lord!”
Luke

9. As Blessed
Alberione we
respond:
The hand of
the Lord
was upon
me…
Blessed Alberione

10. We need saints to go before us on these paths
that have never been trodden before and which
in part are not even marked out clearly.

mentality
Aim at forming a new mentality
in society, a Christian
mentality...

15. The desire to respond to
the signs of the times
and places where we

is a passion for Christ
and for humanity.

configures us to his image
