Why this evening matters?
What happens when a parish stops asking “How do we maintain?” and starts asking “How do we make disciples?”
Join us for an inspirational evening celebrating the launch of Fr. Sammie Maletta’s new book, "Be Disciples. Make Disciples," a compelling, hope-filled vision for parish life rooted in lived experience, hard-won wisdom, and deep love for the Church.
Over drinks, hors d’oeuvres, music, and meaningful conversation, Fr. Maletta will share the story of St. John the Evangelist Parish, where it began, how it was renewed, and where it’s headed next.
This isn't theory. It’s the real story of a parish that chose to trust the Spirit, move into mission, and discover what’s possible when discipleship becomes the priority.
Whether you’re deeply involved in parish leadership or simply hungry for a Church that feels alive, this evening is for you.
Who shouldn't miss this?
Anyone who is watching what's happening in the Church today and asks the question, “God, how can you use me?”
Parish leaders searching for what actually works
Parish partners (parishioners) who want to understand the vision behind where their parish is headed
People who believe the Church still has something powerful to offer
If that’s you, we've saved a spot for you.
