Most of us build our identity on our struggles, achievements, or relationships. Through personal storytelling, Scripture, and practical prayer tools, Jill invites participants into the freedom of an identity rooted in their Baptism.
You Are Not Replaceable
The Body of Christ has no spare parts. This interactive session introduces participants to charisms and equips parish leaders with practical tools to help the people they serve discover their irreplaceable role.
Passing the Fire
What if young people are walking away because no one told them they have something the Church desperately needs? Jill equips youth ministers and catechists with age-appropriate frameworks for introducing charisms.

A deep dive into identity, grace, and the 24 charisms of the Holy Spirit. Participants leave with a clear understanding of what charisms are and practical next steps for discerning their own.

Receptivity to the Holy Spirit
