A Short Course in Catholic Evangelization

Final Class: 7:00 PM February 11th - Newcomers Still Welcome!

Come to explore the truth regarding the Catholic approach to Sharing the Transforming Light of Christ! Evangelization is at it's heart relational - not just making converts, but inviting people into relationship with Christ and the Church by being in relationship with them themselves. Each 2-hour session combines two presentations, personal reflection, small group sharing and a break. Presentations explore the goal and the methods of Catholic evangelization, foundational attitudes and characteristics for effective evangelization, and the core Gospel message. No charge. We will meet in the Main Church Sanctuary.

Please RSVP at https://ststephenslife.com/how-to-share-your-faith Presented by Dr. Ron Ryan, Projects Coordinator for the Archdiocese of Seattle.
