Bolder Dreams:
Ministry Formation

Viatorians are committed to walking with youth and people who go underserved. To strengthen and sustain us in this mission, we looked to kindred spirits in Church ministry to share insights and advice from outside our sponsored ministries.

In Bolder Dreams, we follow Fr. Querbes’ wise advice that “we are bolder when we dream we’re doing God’s work,” and seek to learn from faithful ministers seeking to build the Kingdom of God across the Church.

These 13 special episodes are in the podcast feed, between Eps. 53 and 54, or they can be easily accessed as a YouTube playlist at the button below.
