Gospel of Life Disciples

Welcome to

The Gospel of Life Disciples (GOLD) model their lives and ministry on Jesus Christ. We live together as a family, caring for our elder brothers and sisters, rich in years and experience. We are committed to regular prayer, with a special devotion to the Eucharist which resides in a chapel in each Dwelling. We journey with each other, walking together in community as brothers and sisters in the Lord.

“They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. Awe came upon everyone, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles. All who believed were together and had all things in common.”

– Acts of the Apostles 2:42-44

Gospel of Life Disciples

We are a community of disciples of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As Gospel of Life Disciples we are committed to a consistent ethic of life, as proclaimed by Christ and His Church, from conception until natural death.

Gospel of Life Dwellings

As Gospel of Life Disciples, we live together in family homes called Gospel of Life Dwellings (GOLD). We welcome elders who would otherwise be alone and accompany them on the journey toward Eternal Life.

Gospel of Life Development

Pray. Serve. Give. We welcome your assistance through prayer, service and donations. Your prayer, united with ours, builds a culture of life and a civilization of love. Prayer sustains all that we are and do.
