A New Partnership The Dioceses of Northern Michigan, Nevada, and Wyoming, in partnership with Leader Resources, are collaborating to create LifeCycles: Christian Transformation in Community. INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW Welcome to LifeCycles: Christian Transformation in Community. LifeCycles is a process of ongoing spiritual formation within a ministering community. It is a way for adults to explore and deepen their faith, discover and use their gifts for ministry and be transformed by Christ. Each session in the initial three cycles is set within a liturgical framework, engages group members’ personal experience and explores scripture, prayer forms and spiritual practices. Congregations and dioceses join the LifeCycles community and participate in the use and ongoing development of materials, networks, and resources. Several pilot communities have been selected to use the initial materials in the coming year. Annual memberships in LifeCycles will be available to congregations and dioceses beginning in the summer of 2003.
