69,000 Evangelists Wanted
Wanted immediately! 69,000 Catholic Americans, aged 14 years and older, to begin evangelizing to Americans.
The recently formed John Paul II Society of Evangelists is actively seeking Catholics to begin evangelization projects across America. With America being about 1/4 Catholic, the society calculates that 69,000 evangelists would result in about one million adult conversions to the Catholic faith each year. That would be a ten-fold increase over the present average of 100,000 adults who enter the Catholic faith each year.
The society further estimates that if every American Catholic would lead one non-Catholic American into the Catholic faith each and every year, then America would be about 100% Catholic in just 3 years! Just in time for the 2012 Presidential election.
Southern Baptists had trouble baptising one million in one year recently. It will be interesting to see how the Catholics do at a similar goal.
