The world is in urgent need of rediscovering Jesus Christ and of doing so within His Catholic Church. You can be a powerful instrument in communicating this life transforming message. St. James teaches us...
If anyone among you should stray from the truth and someone brings him back, he should know that whoever brings back a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and cover a multitude of sins. (5:19, 20)
Who We Are
Under the patronage of St. Francis de Sales, and consecrated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, we are responding to Pope John Paul II's call urging the laity to become more active in the Church's primary mission of evangelization. We are a non-profit organization which relies solely on donations to continue this work. All of our members are volunteers and receive no financial benefits.
Our Mission
Catholics love their faith but many lack confidence and skill in sharing it with others. Our mission is to provide members of the Catholic Society of Evangelists (CSoE) with the basic tools and assistance necessary to succeed in communicating the truths of the Catholic faith. With these tools, we can help active Catholics grow in the faith, bring former Catholics back home and give solid information to searching non-Catholics. Together, we are able to purchase these tools in largte quantities, at a discount, making evangelization affordable for all our members.
Our Pledge
We have pledged our uncompromising loyalty and fidelity to the Catholic Church and to its only authentic teaching authority -- the successor of Peter, the Vicar of Christ, the Pope, and to those Bishops who are loyal and in union with him. Anyone willing to take the same pledge of loyalty is invited to become a member and receive our support.
Our Prayer
We pray that through the guidance and inspiration of the Holy Spirit, all may come home to the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. We pray that all Catholics learn more about their faith and in turn use that knowledge to make evangelization a natural and active part of their life. Remember... One person changed by your efforts may in turn affect the lives of generations to come.
Perform the work of an evangelist.-- 2 Tim 4:5

The materials you receive will assist you in learning more about your Catholic faith, and by the grace of God, will help you live and share what the Church teaches, believes and advocates.
We assure you that all this material is in accordance with the teaching Magisterium of the Catholic Church and in the full support of the Holy Father.
