Evangelization training workshop is set for Aug. 5 at Our Lady of the Greenwood

Criterion staff report

The archdiocesan Office of Evangelization will offer an Evangelization Training workshop at Our Lady of the Greenwood Parish, 335 S. Meridian St., in Greenwood, from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. on Aug. 5.

The training, which will include separate tracks in English and in Spanish, will be conducted by Saint Paul Street Evangelization. The day includes time for all participants to come together in prayer and fellowship.

The opportunity is available to all who seek to learn more about evangelization, says Ken Ogorek, director of the archdiocesan Office of Catechesis.

“The workshop isn’t just about street evangelization,” says Ogorek. “It’s really just helping people gain confidence in telling their story and witnessing to particular types of people in a non-confrontational way.

“Participants will not only hear about good evangelization techniques, but will also have opportunities to practice them that day.”

The $10 cost, which will be assessed to parishes, includes lunch and materials.

Registration is required by Aug. 1.
