NEW! Worth a CLICK! Evangelization Workouts How can we get in shape and keep fit for the evangelizing mission of Jesus Christ and the Church? We need to exercise or "work-out" on a regular basis! Come to our Web Site to find new individual, small group, large group or parish calisthenics to stretch our capacity to reach out to others with the Good News of Jesus. Workout #1 Who is God for YOU? American Piety in the 21st Century, a very broad study of American religious beliefs and practices, was released by the Baylor University Institute for Studies of Religion in Texas, September 2006. Some of its findings may be very useful for Catholics engaged in reaching out to young adults (and others) today.
