Reach People Where They Are When sharing the Good News of the Catholic Faith, we must reach people where they are. But what does this really mean? LOCATION The physical settings of those we minister to are varied HOME SMALL GROUP CHURCH SELF-STUDY FORMATION The level of spiritual formation can be as varied as location Wavering Questioning Self Learner FORMED Unformed Curious Sunday Mass Volunteer
Evangelization and Catechesis Today Tools for parishes today are often limited to reach only those members of the parish who are highly engaged and physically present. Existing parish programs do a great job of continuing to develop Catholics who are already at the core of the parish community, but effective faith formation must go beyond that. ENGAGEMENT IN OUR PARISH Highly Engaged Moderately Engaged Disengaged Imagine how a parish community would look if it had the resources to reach both the engaged and the disengaged, the formed and the unformed.

One Solution. Many Fruits. 1 2 3 4 5 Help your parishioners learn, live, and share their faith. Engage those who may be disengaged from the parish and help draw them into the community. Give parishioners an easy way to discover the answers to the questions they are asking. Provide teaching that appeals to every type of learner: Watchers, Readers, and Listeners. Bring your existing evangelization and faith formation programs to the next level. This is a true blessing to our parish. It presents the faith in a lively fashion that keeps people s interest...and it is direct in addressing some of the more difficult problems. Several times during the course of the year, catechumens would say that the presentation directly addressed their situation. Thank you for this wonderful tool. Deacon Tim McEvoy RCIA Coordinator
