Divine Renovation

- OUR DIVINE RENOVATION AT ST. MARY CHURCH IS A CONSTANT PROCESS AS WE FORM DISCIPLES
  
  WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER!!
  From the function of the pews to the beauty of the stained glass windows, the church building is a metaphor for the diversity of the gifts of the people that make it up; the people who transform it from a building to the Church. Just as each support beam and every floorboard are needed for the building to be whole, so too, the Church: people individually gifted, collectively called to be disciples of Christ.
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work...

  Divine Renovation is the answer to a question that parishes across the world have grappled with for decades. How do we continue to bring people to Jesus Christ in a society and culture constantly moving away from that relationship. From declining numbers to passive experiences of church, the obstacles for parishes are real. What would it look like if a parish was full of missionary disciples on fire for mission? What could a pastor accomplish if they had the energy and capacity to lead? These are the questions that Divine Renovation books, podcasts, resources, and coaching help parishes answer.
