COURSE OVERVIEW 
Sandra McConnell, SFO attended this weeklong evangelization course. With great enthusiasm
and zeal for the 'Great Commission' in her heart, Sandra met Father Marty Pable, OFM
Capuchin and together they developed a program that would help others to realize an
understanding of the command of Jesus Christ that all His people are to share their faith
wherever they are in life. As a Franciscan ministry, the Secular Franciscans will be
instrumental in promoting this program. (more) |

"GO AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL
NATIONS...AND KNOW THAT I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS" Matthew 28: 18-19
Were you taught not to discuss religion or
politics?
Do you fear being labeled a religious fanatic?
Do you find it difficult to express your faith?
How would you respond to:
My children don't go to church. What did I
do wrong?
I don't need church anymore. I found God in
other ways.
I assume I'm excommunicated because I am
divorced.
The Church as changed so much I feel I don't
fit in.
Very often we find it difficult to answer
these types of questions and comments. We may feel inadequate verbalizing our responses or
even recognizing God in our lives.
We invite you to come and learn a simple basic
approach in acquiring the tools necessary to share your faith in a gentle, non-threatening
way. This program will benefit your families and your community.
