Formation for the New Evangelization
The work of the New Evangelization is grounded “in presenting once more the beauty and perennial newness of the encounter with Christ” (XIII Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops, #3).
This formation program addresses the challenge of living out the Catholic faith as an adult in the Church and in the world. The content is broken into three sections that address key factors of the Catholic vocation: the mission of the contemporary Catholic, the mission of the Church, and the way of living as apostles of Christ.

- Understand the four fold methodology in Living as Missionary Disciples: A Resource for Evangelization as written by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, and utilize it in everyday life.
- Learn the ideas of apostolate and apostolic work, and utilize those skills in a (optional) Evangelization Start-Up in your diocesan context.
