Encouraging others to know God’s love for them by inviting them to church, to pray and to encounter Christ – inviting them to parish groups where they can learn about Our Lord - helping to form missionary disciples and missionary parishes.

The aim of the Evangelisation sub group is to respond to the Archbishop’s Vision for the Archdiocese to make evangelisation a key priority for Catholics and parishes. To create a plan that:

• Explores the missionary and evangelising potential of parishes and chaplaincies with the clergy
• Engages with the lay faithful that the Church does not have a mission but is a mission. Each baptised person is called to play an active role in evangelisation as missionary disciples
• Encourages all the baptised to engage with local plans for evangelisation in parishes and deaneries so that:
• the baptised grow to become missionary disciples, witnessing in their local community;
• missionary disciples may form missionary structures that reach out and serve

• Establish a team for evangelisation that acts as a ‘resource hub’ in partnership with other diocesan agencies in accompanying the Archdiocese in the ongoing work for evangelisation and mission.
