General Announcements

Evangelization events set for Oct. 17 in Seymour and Nov. 2 in Greenwood

The archdiocesan Office of Evangelization will offer two events for individuals interested in or already involved in parish evangelization.

The first is the Seymour Deanery Evangelization Gathering at St. Ambrose Parish, 325 S. Chestnut St., in Seymour from 7-8:30 p.m. on Oct. 17. The second is a Parish Evangelization Enrichment Day for parishes with an evangelization team, and will be held at SS. Francis and Clare of Assisi Parish, 5901 Olive Branch Road, in Greenwood, from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. on Nov. 2.

The Seymour Deanery Evangelization Gathering is an informational event for anyone who is interested in learning about the Office of Evangelization’s mission to evangelize in central and southern Indiana. Organizers will share a basic approach to encouraging parish communities and their leaders to share the Gospel. The event is free, and no registration is required.

The Parish Evangelization Enrichment Day for parishes with an evangelization team will feature Dominican Father Ben Keller, parochial vicar of St. Paul Catholic Center in Bloomington. The goal of this event is to continue to inspire and encourage parish evangelization teams, giving them the confidence in reaching out to the unchurched and both alienated and practicing Catholics in and around their parish community. The event includes an apostolic resource fair and lunch. The cost is $25—check with your parish about having the fee assessed to it. Registration is required by Oct. 23.

For more information on either of these events or to register for the Nov. 2 event, contact Anita Bardo, archdiocesan evangelization and discipleship coordinator, at 317-236-1466 or abardo@archindy.org.
