How much time will this require?

Most pastors spend just 1–2 hours per month once we begin — with results that would normally require 15+ hours weekly.

What exactly are these "systems"?

They’re practical structures — a clear roadmap, trained lay leadership, and reproducible formation — that support real spiritual growth.

Is this diocesan-approved?

Yes. Everything we do is rooted in Catholic teaching and aligned with diocesan norms. We’ve partnered with pastors across multiple dioceses.

No. You remain the spiritual leader and decision-maker. We simply equip your mission team to disciple others.

We offer flexible models designed to fit your parish’s reality — including phased approaches and diocesan partnerships. We’ll walk through your needs during the free consultation.

What happens if it doesn’t work?

There are no long-term contracts. If you don’t see clear value, you’re not obligated to continue.

Parish Partnerships | Preambula Group

Transform your Parishioners into Catalysts for Mission

We form lay leaders and help parishes build a culture of missionary discipleship.

Why most parish efforts fall short

You became a priest to lead souls to Christ — not to drown in administration. But too often, that’s the reality.

More content isn’t the answer. You’ve tried streamed content, theology nights, evangelization workshops — but without sustained formation and leadership, nothing sticks.

We don’t offer another program. We offer a system for forming leaders who form others — and the ongoing support to help it flourish.

Your calling is to shepherd souls — not to manage decline. Let us walk with you to build the kind of parish you’ve always hoped for.

Without real renewal:

Parishioners drift or disengage

Core volunteers burn out

You feel like a CEO, not a shepherd

It All Starts With a Parish Mission Team

We help you identify a core group of parishioners who are prayerful, committed, and ready for more. This team becomes the engine of renewal in your parish.

You remain the spiritual leader. We help them grow into mature missionary disciples capable of revitalizing your parish from within.

Your 3-Step Path to Parish Renewal

Step 1: Discern Your Mission Team

We help you identify 12-20 carefully selected parishioners to become your core mission team.

Step 2: Form and Equip

We guide this team through our discipleship roadmap for 12 months, building maturity, confidence, and the capacity to lead others.

Step 3: Launch & Multiply

Your mission team begins leading other parishioners through the roadmap, and we continue to coach them every step of the way.

The Discipleship Roadmap: How Renewal Takes Root

This isn’t a one-off event. It’s a repeatable, relational path that moves people from spiritually stuck to spiritually alive — and builds a culture of mission.

Step 1: The Way

Participants discover authentic relationship with God, interior freedom, and resilient faith. They begin living with clarity and purpose.

Step 2: On Fire

Parishioners are healed, grounded in their identity in Christ, and reawakened to the beauty of the Church’s spiritual tradition.

Step 3: Your Mission

Participants discover their God-given call to mission and learn how to share their love of Jesus confidently in the world. Your parish gains leaders ready to carry the mission forward.

Why Most Parish Efforts Fall Short

We don’t offer another program. We offer a system for forming leaders who form others, and we provide ongoing support to help your parish flourish.
