Registration is now open for the next Evangelism Matters, an Episcopal Evangelism Conference on March 15-17 for anyone excited to learn about sharing and growing loving, liberating, life-giving relationships with God.

Hosted by St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Cleveland Heights, OH, Evangelism Matters is a churchwide event co-sponsored by the Episcopal Church’s Evangelism Initiatives Team and Forward Movement.

A pre-conference on March 14 gathers the church’s “Evangelism Catalysts” - two people from each diocese designated by their bishop as leaders who promote and provoke others to practice evangelism. Bishops are asked to send the names and emails of their two catalysts to Sarah Alphin, Associate for Evangelism, Reconciliation and Creation Care, at by February 1; the catalysts will then receive instructions to register for free.

The March 2018 gathering follows the first successful Evangelism Matters conference in November 2016.
