Helping others to discover, follow, and share Jesus Christ.

Greetings in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

I pray you are having a blessed Christmas season and finding time to prayerfully reflect on the generous gift God has given us through His Son.

"When the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of deeds done by us in righteousness, but in virtue of his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal in the Holy Spirit, which he poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that we might be justified by his grace and become heirs in hope of eternal life" (Titus 3:4-7).

What a gift! This year, our prayer is that we would continue to grow in deeper knowledge and understanding of God's love for us, His children.

As you make plans for the new year, would you consider adding ChristLife to your prayer intentions and becoming a monthly donor to support our work of evangelization?

Your brother,

Dave Nodar

Bring ChristLife to Your Parish

The ChristLife series is a three-step evangelization process that is changing lives and transforming parishes through three essential elements: Discovering, Following, and Sharing.

"[ChristLife] has provided a joyful and stimulating environment for both parishioners and non-parishioners to come to a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and with each other in the context of the parish community."
Fr. Donahue, St. Philip the Apostle Parish in Virginia

A Christmas Gift from Kansas

The week before Christmas, ChristLife received an early gift. Sacred Heart in Colwich, Kansas sent a bundle of card to express gratitude for how ChristLife is changing lives and renewing their parish! We were brought to our knees in grateful praise by the opportunity to witness how the Lord is changing lives through the ChristLife evangelization process.

"Blessings to all of you at ChristLife. You have assisted our Savior in helping a parish find their joy in Christ our Lord again."
