- Program for Faith Sharing & Reflection
  
  If you serve in parish ministry or are simply interested in sharing your faith, a great opportunity called
  “The 99 Masterclass” just might be for you!
  
  This series will explore and embrace our role and calling to evangelization and how we can enhance our ministry as instruments of God’s grace! “The 99 Masterclass” program has a component for faith sharing and reflection. This program is different than a Bible Study. Where a Bible Study would help deepen your knowledge of Scripture, this will allow us to explore and embrace our role and calling to share our faith.
  
  Each session includes a brief 3-7 minute video from eight dynamic speakers, followed by some time for reflection. The videos along with the discussion questions will help us to become more comfortable in sharing our faith and give us:
  
  Practical insights on welcoming and sharing the Gospel.
  
  Encouragement for those times when discipleship is difficult.
  
  Develop a deeper relationship with Jesus.
  
  Learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit.
