Joining Jesus in a New Missional Age: Part Two
It has been a couple months since the last blog post featuring St. John’s parish in Vernon and St. Monica’s parish in Hartford, and their participation with Joining Jesus in this new Missional Age (JJMA).

- February – March: Introductions
- April – August: People of Relationship
- September – December: Listening Without Agenda
- January – March: Stories in the Neighborhood
- March – May: Discerning
