Team Saint Paul Missionaries will accompany Catholic young adults serving in the military through authentic relationships that grow into discipleship with Christ. The AMS will train Missionaries to walk with military young adults and invite them to take on the mission to live out their baptismal call to discipleship and evangelization.
What will Team Saint Paul do?
Support Chaplains
- Discern how to foster an encounter with Christ that leads young adults to ongoing conversion.
- Empower the faithful to live out their baptismal call to evangelize.
Provide Accompaniment
- Facilitate gatherings and activities that connect young adults to their peer community.
- Form relationships with young adults at local military installations to be witnesses of the Catholic faith, in both word and action.
Teach and re-engage in the Faith
- Lead young adults to the sacraments through a deepening of their faith formation
- Invite young adults to participate in a life of prayer
Pillars of Missionary Life
The life of a Team Saint Paul Missionary is grounded in prayer, community, formation, and accompaniment. Each day is ordered around prayer and the sacraments. Missionaries commit to spending an hour in personal prayer, attending daily Mass and cultivating fellowship with one another.
Team Saint Paul will be formed to embrace both missionary and military culture.
