Evangelisation (key beliefs) Flashcards
Why is evangelisation important according to Catholics?
Catholics are called to spread the word. The Catechism and the Pope encourage evangelisation. It is a Catholic’s duty to share the Good News with others; they are saved so they should want others to be saved too. Britain is a multi- faith society so they should tell others about our faith.
How can Catholics evangelise?
LOCALLY - The God News is passed on through the Church eg Mass
NATIONALLY - Catholic publications; the Bishop’s conference helps Catholics to share the Gospel.
GLOBALLY - World Youth Day and charities eg CAFOD
What are the main teachings of Evangelii Gaudium?
Everyone needs to proclaim the Good News. If we love God, we must also love our neighbour and want to share the Good News with them (in word and in action). We
need to work towards a society for all.
