Hickey calls for Evangelisation Centre volunteers

Seeks individuals to help spread the Faith and man new Evangelisation Centre

Archbishop Hickey issued this call to Catholics of the Archdiocese this week:
My Dear People,
I am looking for help to set up an evangelisation centre which will reach out to faraway Catholics and to unbelievers.
This will involve a city-based coordinating and information centre. It will provide:
l a warm welcome to enquirers
l a reading room
l helpful resources about the Catholic Faith
l someone to talk to
l referral to RCIA groups, to parishes and to prayer groups.
It will house the B J Hickey Biblical Foundation.
It will also coordinate the publicity needed to attract people to know Jesus and to hear his message within the community of his followers, the Church.
This project is in its infancy.  To help realise it I am looking for people of strong faith with abilities in any of the following:
l administration
l publicity and marketing
l religious writing
l IT proficiency
l finance and fundraising
l person-to-person skills
l a love for Holy Scripture
l a passionate desire to proclaim the Kingdom of God to the world.
If you want to be part of this pioneering team, please write to me or call me.
For years the Popes have been calling on us to evangelise the world.  This part of the world is our responsibility.  I call on people with some time on their hands to become involved in this mission.
Yours sincerely in Jesus Christ
Most Reverend Barry James Hickey
Archbishop of Perth
