ChristLife
The ChristLife Program is a three-part relational evangelization process used in Roman Catholic parishes to help people discover a personal relationship with Jesus, learn how to live as Catholic disciples, and share their faith. The program emphasizes a shared meal, prayer, video teachings, and small group discussion.
The program takes place over consecutive seven-week segments designed to systematically deepen a person's faith in a three-step process:
- Discovering Christ: Focuses on the foundational Gospel message (the kerygma). It invites participants to explore the meaning of life and enter into or renew a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. This stage includes a dedicated day retreat.
- Following Christ: Designed for those who have completed Discovering Christ. It teaches the foundational disciplines of Catholic discipleship, including daily prayer, understanding the Sacraments, and living a Spirit-filled life.
- Sharing Christ:
Equips participants to become missionary disciples. It provides practical encouragement and methods for sharing the Gospel and their personal faith journey with family, friends, and co-workers in everyday life.

Life can feel overwhelming—too many worries, too many places to be, and endless to-do lists. Have you ever wished for a chance to slow down and reflect on what life is really about? Discovering Christ is for anyone who is curious and searching for meaning, purpose, and peace.
Enjoy a delicious dinner, a thought-provoking talk, and optional small-group conversation in a warm, friendly, judgment-free environment. Invite a friend, neighbor, or loved one who may be searching for hope or struggling in their faith journey. Discovering Christ is relaxed, welcoming, and free.
