About the Street Evangelization Workshop
Street Evangelization is at the heart of our work as an apostolate. Years of experience and thousands of interactions with real people have taught us a lot about how to have fruitful conversations out on the street.
This 6 hour workshop includes presentations on the basics of street evangelization, small group practice sessions, as well as full group discussions and role playing. This training is perfect for parishes who would like to start up their own Street Evangelization team!
Topics include:
- The SPSE Model: Listen, Befriend, Proclaim & Invite
- Gifts from Heaven: Breaking the Ice with the Rosary and Miraculous Medal
- Proclaiming the Gospel
- What We Need to Know about Salvation
- Sharing our Personal Testimony
- Giving Good Reasons to Believe

Costs
All of our workshops are heavily subsidized by St. Paul Street Evangelization. We do not have a set amount we charge (though we do provide guidelines); instead we ask that your team prays about what to give as a donation for our work.
Expenses include transportation and accommodations for the speaker, making copies of handouts, and the return shipping on any leftover items from a sales table.
Workshops that include the “live lab” may have additional costs for materials to use during evangelization.
Finally, you are also responsible for any hospitality or meals you offer your participants. You may recoup your costs by charging participants a fee to attend. Most groups charge $25-40 per person. We will provide online registration and deduct any money collected from your final invoice.
We provide a registration portal and marketing materials to our hosts.
