Engaging the Laity
God has given each person a unique set of gifts and charisms to live out their individual vocation. Through revitalized prayer and formation opportunities, encounters with family, friends, co-workers and neighbors, we can welcome new faces into the fold. We are guided by our strengths to stimulate renewal in the Church.

In this episode, part of our ongoing series focusing on the pastoral planning initiative ‘All Things New,’ we hear a conversation between Amy Hoeschen, administrator for the One in Faith ACC and Jessica Goebel, human resources coordinator for the diocese of Saint Cloud. They share about their experience as lay faithful in the Church and how their choice to enroll in the Emmaus Institute program not only helped them grow in knowledge of Church history and teaching, but provided the foundation for their lives as lay leaders.
