Let’s ‘Walk with One’ this Advent
We are all called to evangelize, and thanks to the gift of the Holy Spirit, we are well-equipped for this mission. There is someone in your life right now whom Jesus longs to call to himself. This Advent season, you, and every member of Christ the King pastorate, is invited to apply the four simple steps of the ‘Walk with One’ process to transform our community, heart by heart. We’ll guide you through the steps, week by week.
In the Scriptures, we hear over and over how Jesus invited people one by one to follow him. He also invites us to follow him more deeply and, just like him, to “walk with one” person to a new or renewed experience of God’s love. Evangelization, or “bringing the Good News,” typically happens in one-on-one moments that are not planned or scripted. You might be asking yourself: Where do I start with inviting someone to take a step closer to Jesus? How might I invite them forward in their faith? Here’s a simple four-stage process of accompaniment that focuses on a “heart-to-heart” approach:
1. Identify someone in a spirit of humility
2. Intercede for that person in communion with the Holy Spirit
3. Connect in Eucharistic friendship
4. Invite that person on a path most suitable for him or her
The bottom line is this: If you can open your heart to speak about how Jesus has touched your life, your heart will touch the heart of whomever the Holy Spirit leads you to accompany.
