02/22/25 Saint Paul Street Evangelization Webinar

February 23, 2025


Really enjoyed the webinar on zoom.  Some take-aways.

  1. Stats:
    1. 41% of raised Catholics leave the Church Forever!
    2. 69% don't believe in the real presence of the Eucharist!
      1. In 2023, St. James hosted a Eucharist Conference.  Fr. Chris Alar was there and presented "The Eucharistic Miracle in Buenos Aires!  https://youtu.be/ZeBpcy8ytac?si=YjvIA-qSh2PV8kkh
    3. For every 1 person that joins the Catholic Church, 6 leave!
  2. SPSE Catholic Resource Informational Website & supply store provide extensive, comprehensive training & supplies in English & Spanish!
  3. Brian Lee and Bob Wilson, SPSE Team Directors, facilitate the on-line zoom training.  Love the small groups.  Personally I got more out of this via zoom than in a real classroom as there are NO distractions on line.  
  4. We are offered 4 on-line webinars a year:  1 per quarter.  God is there, delighting in His evangelists.  Everytime I train with SPSE, I grow stronger in sharing the kerygma in everyday non-confrontational life experiences!  

Praise God.  More souls for you Lord!  Thank you Jesus.  God is so great.  So thankful that there is one of these every quarter.  Stay tuned!

Beautiful SPSE Rosary Encounter

December 19, 2024


I hope you are enjoying this beautiful Christmas Season.  I write for my happiness in meeting  a wonderful young man today while offering him the Rosary Prayer & Beads.  It was perfect timing because we found that we had something important to pray on.  We felt the Holy Spirit, our friend, counselor & advisor's presence.  We both love Jesus.  Thank you Jesus!

As a team member of Saint Paul Street Evangelization, we have many gifts to share which enriches spiritual lives.  I can testify to the power of the Rosary as I was battling numbing intense grief when I was widowed.  Fasting & saying the Holy Rosary each morning healed my grief & grew my faith.  I had been Baptist so this was new for me.   With the Rosary, we contemplate the life of Jesus & relate our suffering to His.  Every Christian can benefit from contemplating on the life of Jesus.  Jesus washed my soul with my tears and they dried up leaving thankful love.  I hope you will watch this video about the power of the Holy Rosary.  God bless you.  Thank you Jesus.  Thank you for your "yes" Mother Mary, mother of Jesus.  https://youtu.be/Dfyk53nrDzc?si=XJFqHar2iTD1wmu-

December 13, 2024


SPSE Team PhotoVisiting a friend in rehab, brought evangelization tools:  2 Rosarys, 2 Rosary Prayer, etc.  A nurse came in and I asked her if she would like a rosary.  She was so impressed and picked out one that was her very favorite color....purple.  She said she wasn't Catholic.  I shared  that the rosary prayer is verses from the gospel, meditating on the life of Jesus.  She was so happy as she is a Christian and she was looking forward to learning the Rosary.

11/23/24 SPSE Training Webinar

November 27, 2024


 

Thank you to Saint James for hosting our first team webinar.  SPSE makes it easy to train people in evangelization.  As the website notes, "SPSE has grown from a small team of friends in Portland, Oregon to an international network of over 200 trained street evangelization teams and a world class school of renowned evangelists teaching average Catholics how to take the gospel to a world starved for the good news. The various distinguished advisors and instructors within this organization include Cardinal Raymond Burke, Archbishop Allen Vigneron, Steve Ray, Mary Healy, Peter Herbeck, Tom Monaghan and many others."

SPSE hosts a training webinar every quarter so we look forward to more evanglist training. SPSE Team Photo

10/16/24 Event - The Blessed Rosary

November 13, 2024


SPSE Team Photo1 Peter 3:15 ESV: "But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,"

10/16/24 - Lovely outing of meaningful encounters. One that stands out is of a beautiful catholic sister-in-Christ who was feeling defeated because a close friend continues to poke at her catholic faith. We had a blessed conversation & prayer coming to understanding so that she is able to defend her faith. Protestants and Catholics are christians. Catholic means universal christian. We have more in common than not. The devil couldn't beat the church so he joined it and broke it up. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT WE JOIN TOGETHER FOR OUR FATHER IN ORDER THAT WE ARE STRONGER TO DEFEAT THE ENEMY OF THE CHURCH OF GOD. WE ARE THE FAMILY OF GOD WHO INHERITS THE KINGDOM AS HIS CHILDREN. John 14:2 ESV "In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?" AMEN.
