What does the word “Evangelion” mean?
| Hello! Welcome to my website ! It’s dedicated to information on the topic of EVANGELIZATION. Here you will find challenging exercises in the knowledge of the Bible and evangelization, and of the Catholic Church’s official teaching on the subject.

Page One: Study material
Evangelization from the Scriptures Each section begins with a passage from Holy Writ, then a short reflection and then “What say you?”, questions you can use either in personal study or in a group setting. Try it, if you wish!
Evangelization and Holy Scripture This Power Point Presentation could be used to teach the study above by the same name, to a group of students.
Evangelization from the Magisterium This is a 30-day self-study (which could also be done in a small group) of the major papal documents on EVANGELIZATION. Each day includes a direct quote from the Magisterium (the official teaching of the Church), then asks you to write down your reflection on the subject. Then you pick out a Scripture quote and write a brief prayer of you own. It’s like a month-long retreat! Try your hand!
Evangelization from the Magisterium The power point presentation helps teach a study course based on the Word document of the same name and title.

Evangelization in the Parish his is from Robert S. Rivers, C.S.P., From Maintenance to Mission, the very best book I have found on practical evangelization on the parish level. Read the book, then use this Power Point Presentation to share it with others in your parish.

Page Four: Some compositions of my own
ConfEVOLUTION Here I express my deepest convictions on the subject of the Lordship of Christ. It was the Divine and Anointed Son of God through whom God the Father made this material world, created the human species, redeemed him from sin and death…etc, etc. From beginning to end. It’s not long, read it, meditate on it. It forms my every theological thought!
EvVisPrayer This is the prayer which we here at St. Joseph Church in York, PA use to close out our home visits.
LmatrPrayer This is the prayer which I pray for each newly-wed couple who have celebrated the Sacrament of Matrimony here in the parish.
