Hazardous Travels Formation Experience (Pilot)
Launched in Spring 2026 and now being piloted in parish and ministry settings across multiple states.
One Experience. Three Pathways.
The Hazardous Travels Formation Experience is currently being piloted in parish and ministry settings across multiple states, helping refine the model through real-world implementation.
Rooted in story, silence, and honest conversation, this experience is designed to help participants move from reflection to lived discipleship in daily life.
Formation Pathways
4-Week Experience (Entry Point)
Awareness → Honesty → First Action
6-Week Experience (Deeper Integration)
Reflection → Pattern Recognition → Habit Formation
10-Week Experience (Full Formation Cycle)
Identity → Testing → Vocation → Daily Discipleship
How It Works
Each session follows a simple and repeatable structure:
-
Opening prayer
-
Guided reading
-
Silent reflection
-
Group discussion
-
Personal takeaway and closing prayer
No theological expertise is required. The structure is designed to create space for honest conversation, deeper reflection, and real growth.
Who This Is For
-
Parish men’s groups
-
Young adult groups
-
Campus ministry
-
Retreat follow-up sessions
-
Small groups seeking deeper faith integration
This is not a catechetical program, but a formation experience designed to help participants live what they already believe.
Current Stage
Launched in Spring 2026, the Hazardous Travels Formation Experience is now being piloted in parish and ministry settings across multiple states.
The initial pilot began with the Saint Juliana Men’s Group in Fullerton, California. The experience has since expanded to Saint Joseph Catholic Church in the Diocese of Orange and Saint John the Beloved Catholic Church in Summerville, South Carolina.
These early implementations are helping refine a scalable formation model for parishes, retreats, Catholic education, campus ministry, pilgrimage, and other faith-based communities.
