new Evangelization Commission
Evangelization is the responsibility of all Catholics.
Members of the New Evangelization Commission are enthusiastic instruments of the catholic faith, committing to inspiring our fellow parishioners to build up the church for the good of our parish and community.
Together they:
- Provide opportunities to share the truth of the Gospel with others.
- Supply avenues to proclaim the fullness of the Faith to all in the Parish.
- Support conversion to a life with Jesus Christ.
- Prepare teens, young adults, and adults to be and live as disciples.
The new evangelization commission's purpose is To promote and support opportunities for all to experience the personal love of jesus christ and to accompany and form them on their journey of transformation into his apostles who will in turn lead others to him.

Join our Commission if you are interested in helping others on their faith journey
through large group programs or small faith-sharing groups.
