National Evangelization Teams

It seems that the term "Evangelization" has been at the top of my calendar this week.  First the trip to Prince Albert, now a group of Evangelizers has invaded Bolton! To make us evangelizers! Today we started out first of 4 National Evangelization Team Encounter Days for our grade 8 students.
NET stands for National Evangelization Teams. They are Catholic Missionaries who share Jesus' gospel message with young people in a team format. NET Ministries of Canada challenges young Catholics to love Christ and embrace the life of the Church. NET Canada recruits and trains teams to evangelize to over 28,000 youth every year in churches, and schools. Here is a Video about NET.

NET's mission, to challenge young Catholics to love Christ and embrace the life of the Church, is accomplished by:

• Proclaiming the Gospel of Christ through a personal witness of faith;
• Inviting young people to live for Christ;
• Forming young people in Christian character through the study and practice of our faith;
• Equipping young adults and youth workers with the ministry skills needed for evangelization;

Back Row- Matt Jarrett-Petrocco, DJ Rousseau, John O'Hara, Daniel Hudec, Tyler Wilson.

Front Row - Sarah DeCoste, Mary Whalen, Alex Sibiga, Silken Neutelings, Sydney Merrill.

This is the Encounter team that arrived last night and will be here until Thursday afternoon. Please pray for these young people and for our Grade 8 Students who are on retreat 1 day this week!
Peace.
