When Jesus first sends his disciples to proclaim the kingdom of God in word and deed, he sends them two by two (Mark 6:7). To raise up a new generation of missionary disciples, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles will encourage three simple missionary practices 2x2: Gospel reflection, prayer, and acts of charity and justice.
Reflecting together on the life and words of Jesus in the Gospels awakens faith and helps us share Him with others. Praying together aloud opens hearts to Jesus. Doing acts of charity and justice together with intentionality shows the love and mercy of Jesus. Engaging in these missionary practices will form hearts for mission and increase confidence in proclaiming the Gospel.
