Missionary Service Opportunities
Confirmation preparation shall include service initiatives that foster missionary discipleship through the integration of community outreach and evangelization. (Confirmation Guidelines, 1900.4 from the Archdiocese of Chicago)
Service of Missionary Discipleship
a. Missionary service authenticates the practice of our Catholic identity and mission while enlivening Christ-centered values in our lives.
b. Missionary disciples witness to Christ-like actions through practical real life experiences of Christian love in service of others.
c. Attention shall be given to developing parish service projects that foster missionary discipleship through the integration of community outreach and evangelization. Candidate’s experiences shall complement learning theory, methodologies, and reflection. The vitality of active missionary discipleship serves as true witnesses to the Church’s mission.
Confirmandi in grades 7 and 8 should seek opportunities to serve in response to our Catholic Social Teachings, Corporal Works of Mercy, and Spiritual Works of Mercy. We strongly encourage Confirmandi to find an opportunity to serve in the parish faith community as well as in the local community.
