Life In The SPIRIT

A Life in the Spirit Seminar establishes or deepens a person’s relationship with Jesus Christ; and leads the participant to experience an awakening of the gifts and fruits of the HOLY SPIRIT bestowed at Baptism and Confirmation.  After attending a  Life In The Spirit Seminar  many have experienced GOD in or more of the following ways;

· The LORD’s peace and joy reigning in ways not previously experienced.

· Scripture becomes alive, with words seemingly jumping out while reading or studying them

· A strong desire for more and deeper prayer

 

The  Life in the Spirit Seminar  is a proven method for increasing personal faith commitments throughout the diocese.  Most participants become deeply involved in the faith life of their individual parishes as lectors, music ministers, parish pastoral councils, Eucharistic ministers, ushers, RCIA, CCD teachers, and various other ministries.

 

 

The  Life in the Spirit Seminar format was developed, and has evolved over the course of some forty plus years.  Facilitators use “The Life in the Spirit Seminars, Team Manual, Catholic Edition”, Word of God Community, Servant Books, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA.  The seminar consists of the following eight talks that are conducted as either a weekend retreat or a series of weekly meetings.

 

GOD's Love Seminar 1:

Helps participants understand that God loves them more than anything.  Psalm 139 tells us that God created us lovingly in our mother’s womb.  John 3:16 tells us that God loved us so much that He sent His only begotten son...

 

 

Salvation Seminar 2:

Explains the basics and momentousness of the Christian message.  Participants will be given the opportunity to deepen their personal relationship with the Lord Jesus.

Transformation in Christ Seminar 8:

To help people avoid discouragement while "Slugging it out" with everyday problems.  Like a butterfly emerges from a cocoon, so shall we transform into beautiful children of a living God.
