All across the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth parishes hosted evangelization programs that began in September or October. It was a monumental task to plan these efforts but all to invite people to come and see what these evangelization programs were about. Yet it happened, and it happened well! Hundreds of people were invited to discover Jesus for the first time…or perhaps re-discover him. Our efforts don’t end here! This is just a first step in a life long journey of becoming missionary disciples. Parishes will continue to provide first step evangelization programs but also other ways – bible studies, faith sharing, discipleship groups, to name a few – for people to continue to build a relationship with Jesus.
As Advent prepares us for the birth of Jesus at Christmas, find out what gatherings, happenings, or programs, you can invite people to in the new year. How can you invite those you know: friends, family, acquaintances to discover the gift of Jesus in their lives this Christmas season…and beyond!
