042: A Reintroduction to Proclaim with Eric Chow and Emi Namoro

Since its initial launch in October 2019, the Proclaim Movement - the evangelization initiative in the Archdiocese of Vancouver - has grown significantly. It has supported parishes and ministries by providing online and in-person training and resources on leadership, discipleship, and how to start their own Alpha and CCO Discovery small groups in their own communities.

As with new movements and initiatives, it is common for people to ask recurring questions about its mission and purpose. Who better to answer these questions than the director of Proclaim himself? In this episode, guest host Emi Namoro will interview Eric about the origin of Proclaim, the movement’s growth since its launch in 2019, and frequently asked questions that people have had over the years.

Discussion Questions:

• What stood out to you the most from this episode?
• What surprised you from this reintroduction to the Proclaim Movement?
• What does missionary disciple mean to you?
• What can you do today to “Awaken Disciples to Proclaim Jesus”?
• How can you be involved in Proclaim? How have you been involved in Proclaim?

Emi Namoro serves as the Digital Engagement Support for the Proclaim Movement. She is a full-time psychology student and a parishioner at St. Clare of Assisi Parish in Coquitlam.
