MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

In the business world, disruptors are brands that enter a market at a lower cost, with a superior product, that eventually force the market to adjust to their existence.

Uber was a disruptor. Netflix was a disruptor. Tesla was a disruptor. Each of these companies completely disrupted their markets from an old paradigm into new possibilities.

A business woman who recently went through the Reach More training process at her parish sent a note of thanks. She likened our work to that of an industry disruptor.

I hope so! The old way of doing Catholic ministry has not been broadly fruitful. Relying on faith

formation classrooms, adult parish programs, social events, and even good things like parish hospitality has not moved the needle in helping more people commit their lives to Jesus in the Church. Indeed, many markers of vibrancy in the Church continue to degrade.

We need “market” disruptors in the Church - and they are rising up.

We do not seek to gain market share against other excellent Catholic organizations. In fact, we actively seek out opportunities to partner with them so we can combine charisms to serve even more parts of the Church.

But we do zealously seek to disrupt failing paradigms of ministry in the church. We seek to join others to build a new paradigm in the Church. We urgently need to prioritize the formation and training of Catholics to make disciples in the world. You would think this would already be prioritized by the multitude of good priests in the Church. But a quick look at budgets and staff allocation will reveal that the old paradigms, whether intentional or not, still hold strong sway.

4

How will the Church actually carry out the Great Commission? How will we reach those in our

communities that are skeptical of the Church and will never darken the door of our parishes? How will campus ministries reach the existential peripheries that seem hopeless?

It is only through the laity–formed in the power of their baptism and confirmation, eyes fixed on Jesus (Hebrews 12:1), hearts fixed on intimacy with Jesus (holiness), reaching out to the lost and the least,

with apostolic daydreams for how to evangelize more people in their circles of influence–that we can reach more with the life of Jesus.

Unfortunately, prioritizing this mission to form and equip laity in robust, apostolic ways is disruptive.

But more and more pastors are disruptors! We have seen steady growth over the last five years because an increasing number of priests reject the status quo and prioritize the Great Commission.

We are honored, this past year alone, to have partnered with many of these pastors to deeply form and equip over 2,500 apostolic witnesses to launch into the world from parishes, campus ministries, and military installations all over the country and some parts of the world.

Because this is disruptive, we are building out more ways to inspire seminarians and priests to join us in being disruptors. They need our support. They can be catalysts for millions of Catholics in this country to bring the Gospel where only they can go. Thank you for your generous support and prayers that push us forward in this crucial mission to change the world!

JASON SIMON President, The Evangelical Catholic

LAUNCHING AND SUPPORTING LAY APOSTOLATES ACTIVATING LAY LEADERS FOR MISSION What does it actually look like when a parishioner gets invited deeper into their baptismal call through the Reach MoreTM mission process?

Meet Tina, a (seemingly) regular parishioner at a typical Catholic parish. On the surface, Tina is like everyone else, but she's living a life on mission. Why? She has been equipped with formation and skills to enrich her relationship with Jesus, interact intentionally with those in her life, and confidently thrive in her baptismal call to be the light of Christ.

SHARES HER STORY OF FAITH IN LOVING, RELEVANT WAYS

MENTORS OTHERS INTO DISCIPLESHIP HABITS

FACILITATES PRAYERFUL DISCUSSION OF GOD'S WORD

WORKS AND SERVES HER FAMILY WITH A DESIRE TO HONOR AND GLORIFY GOD 6

INTERCEDES FOR SPECIFIC PEOPLE IN HER LIFE

DISCERNS THE RIGHT NEXT STEP ACCORDING TO INDIVIDUALS' SPIRITUAL READINESS

L A U N C H I N G A P O S T O L AT E S Jesus used the power of intimate relationships to invest in a small group of people who would carry on the mission and build the Church. In the same way, parishes launch people like Tina into disciple-making apostolates in the world with the help of the Evangelical Catholic's consulting and training.

READY FOR MORE Every parish has parishioners like Tina who are ready for more, who are ready to be equipped for mission. People like Tina have the most potential to reach the lukewarm in the pews and those outside of the Church.

INITIAL MISSION TRAINING Tina is invited by the point person (PP) into mission. The parish provides twelve weeks of Reach More Mission Training that awakens Tina's apostolic awareness and consciousness, and provides training for her apostolic skills.

PP

TRAINING GROUP

S U P P O R T I N G A P O S T O L AT E S Tina's mission doesn't end with the training group. Disciple makers need continual support from pastors and point people to thrive. Tina and other trained leaders in her parish are provided ongoing spiritual and practical shepherding for long-term success.

MONTHLY MISSION SUPPORT GROUP Tina meets monthly with a group of three or four other leaders. Tina is encouraged, prayed for, and spurred to stay growing in discipleship and committment to mission. She provides the same support for others in her group.

ONGOING MISSION FORMATION Tina is invited by the parish to gather together with fellow parishioners who are living on mission three to four times a year for ongoing formation and training to support deeper growth and sustained apostolic consciousness.

AN IMAGINATION FOR LAY AGENCY YOU ARE THE FIRE THAT FUELS THE ENGINE “You’ll never see me darken the door of a church!”

It’s commonly said and deeply felt. For many people, stepping into a church is so far from their comfort zone that no event or program held on church grounds could ever convince them to come.

And yet, parishes across the nation pour thousands of dollars and volunteer hours into trying to accomplish this impossible feat.

It’s not enough to try to lure people across the thresholds of our churches; we must send people out to find those who would never come.

A new paradigm is needed for the Church to live vibrantly in the world today. It’s not enough to try to lure people across the thresholds of our churches; we must send people out to find those who would never come.

Right now, we’re holding onto a programmatic paradigm that stems from the idea that good programs and events will draw people to church.

Our parishes must shift their focus to a paradigm that returns to the roots of the Church instituted

by Christ, that of an apostolic mission where the faithful are sent into the world to set it on fire with the Holy Spirit.

8

The Church’s new paradigm of apostolic mission acknowledges recent societal shifts and sees that we are no longer in an age where gathering at the parish is central in people’s lives. We must admit that we are no longer in a culture powered by the winds of Christianity. The Christmas and Easter Catholics on our parish rolls, much less our neighbors and co-workers, will not come to a church on a Thursday night. Parishes must wrestle with how they will reach friends and neighbors who never, or only rarely, step foot onto parish grounds.

Evangelization in a programmatic paradigm is thought of as parish-centered and powered by volunteers. It seeks to measure success by the growth of involvement in parish life. This creates a mode of operating wherein “the parish”—i.e. the ministries, programs, and pastoral leaders tied to the institutional structures—is seen as the engine of evangelization and the people are the fuel. This engine, the parish, is stationary and can bring about transformed lives only if people come to it.

It relies on parishioners to fuel its many events and activities, but just like fuel, these parishioners quickly get burned out trying to keep the engine running.

When a parish shifts its paradigm to apostolic mission, it changes its way of doing ministry and ceases treating Catholics in the pews as fuel. Instead, the parish structures, the liturgies and sacraments, the Church’s doctrines, and a focus on sharing the gospel become fuel that powers and supports lay people as the engines of evangelization they are created to be. Engines who burn with apostolic zeal and travel as far as necessary to reach the one who is lost, hurting, or lonely. The parish was ordained to be the fuel for every apostolic age, and we need it to be that now.

Every baptized Catholic has received the call to live a personal apostolate in the world. The Great Commission is for every Catholic, not just for our parish structures.

Parishes are perfectly situated to fuel the lay apostolic mission, feeding their parishioners meaningful encounters with God’s Word, nourishing communities, providing rich formation, practical apostolic training, beautiful worship, and above all the Eucharist. God has given our Church all the fuel lay people need to be well-running engines that go to the existential peripheries as salt, light, and leaven. Perhaps no one has stated this more forcefully and authoritatively than the Holy Father, Pope Francis: “In all its activities the parish encourages and trains its members to be evangelizers” (Evangelii gaudium, 28).

Apostolic mission powered by the engine of the laity is innovative, entrepreneurial, custom-made,

and mobile. It is everyday Catholics wrestling with the realities of their unbelieving friends, letting the Holy Spirit lead them to creative, thoughtful ways of engaging others more deeply. Every baptized Catholic has received the call to live a personal apostolate in the world. Every confirmed Catholic was sealed with the promise of the Holy Spirit to joyfully proclaim the Good News of Jesus and make disciples. The Great Commission is for every Catholic, not just for our parish structures.

This, of course, depends on mature lay people having apostolic consciousness, attitudes, and skills. The Evangelical Catholic coaches parishes to equip the laity for their vocation in the world. Our Reach More Mission Training provides parishioners with practical skills to get to know people deeply, ask good questions, share appropriately about their life and faith, and invite others into deeper exploration of the meaning of their lives. They learn to fast and pray intentionally for people’s hearts to be opened to faith. They share the Good News through personal testimony and help their friends encounter Jesus in the Scriptures.

Increasingly, the EC meets apostolic priests longing to shepherd their parishes from ministry models built for programs and volunteers into places where the laity are fueled for apostolic mission. Together we are shifting the paradigm in our parishes as lay people realize their irreplaceable role in the Church and take ownership of their mission in the world.

DISCIPLES IN THE MIDST OF THE WORLD YOU ARE GIVING PASTORS THE OPPORTUNITY TO DREAM BIG You have made it possible for us to expand in so many ways. Because of your prayers and thoughtful support, we are not only able to reach more ministries each year, but we are also able to improve and refine the services and resources we offer.

FR. TOM DUBOIS St. George & St. Teresa Parishes | Taunton, Somerset, UK

Fr. Tom Dubois signed the contract to start the EC’s first-ever partnership with a parish in Europe. Most parishes in England do not have lay pastoral staff, so Fr. Tom got creative and committed his own time to the mission. Two years later, he has invited other lay people into volunteer leadership and is working to create a structure where leaders are encouraged and reminded of their mission in the world even though he is still unable to hire full-time staff to support them.

FR. MICHAEL BURBECK St. Michael the Archangel | Cary, NC

Fr. Michael Burbeck wants to see a culture shift in his large parish community of 11,000+ registered parishioners. Such a large community comes with challenges, especially when trying to imbue a new tone of lay missionary outreach in the world. But Fr. Michael and EC have a goal to train and sustain 1,000 parishioners through St. Michael’s in the next 10 years. One thousand Catholics trained in the Heart and Habits of Mission will make a lasting impact on Cary, NC.

FR. KEITH O’HARE St. Louis Catholic Church | Alexandria, VA

Fr. O'Hare's #1 priority is forming the faithful for secular apostolate and making sure there is an ecosystem of community, formation, encouragement, and support. He has prioritized evangelization, bringing on staff to support the EC partnership and mission training in both English and Spanish. He is constantly thinking about ways to integrate training groups, huddles, and one-on-ones into everything they do, including their school.

FR. STEPHEN BLAXTON Holy Family Parish | Sandusky, MI

Fr. Blaxton did not have anyone lined up to be a Point Person (PP) when first partnering with the Evangelical Catholic, so he served as the PP for many years in the interim. Fr. Blaxton shepherds two parishes in rural Michigan, and takes the time to be present even though the parishes are thirty minutes away from each other. He is so dedicated to mission training and continues to check in one-on-one with leaders even though he found someone to run Reach More in the parish.

FR. STEPHEN LANGRIDGE St. Elizabeth of Portugal | Richmond-upon-Thames, UK

Fr. Stephen Langridge came to St. Elizabeth’s eight years ago, he knew he wanted evangelization to be central to the parish’s identity. Since then, this relatively small parish has run over twenty Alphas and refocused on evangelization, despite pushback and some people leaving the parish.

Now, Fr. Stephen is partnering with EC to help those who have come to deeper faith in Christ to take part in Jesus’ apostolic mission to the world.

FR. JIM LEE St. Michael Parish | Olympia, WA

Fr. Jim Lee has been invested in the work of evangelization since partnering with the EC. He has given a staff person full-time capacity to invest in trained leaders. Fr. Jim suffers from a crippling disease, but still has the energy to join in the huddle gatherings and exhort his leaders.

He offers up his suffering to the redemption of souls, and continues to shepherd his parishioners despite his condition.

PRIESTS FOR AN APOSTOLIC AGE WITH YOUR HELP, WE ARE EQUIPPING CLERGY WITH A MISSIONARY VISION You continually inspire us to be "disruptors" in the missionary space. This year, your prayers and support led us to host a conference experience designed to give priests the skills and tools they need to activate their parishioners as effective Catholic missionaries in their own communities. “Priests for an Apostolic Age” was a three-day conference on January 24-26, 2023, hosted in Dallas, TX.

The conference provided priests with the opportunity to gather with others who share similar convictions on evangelization, learn how an outdated understanding of the parish could be holding them back, and how to leverage their influence to activate a movement of missionaries.

“We are not living in Christendom anymore. The Church cannot wait for people to come inside her doors to hear of Christ. Now is the time to consider new strategies to ignite missionary hearts and to testify to the transforming love of God,” said Monsignor James P. Shea, keynote speaker and President of University of Mary in Bismarck, ND. The three-day immersive experience featured speakers like FOCUS founder Curtis Martin and author and radio host Dave Durand, a keynote

12

address from Monsignor Shea, and daily Mass with additional opportunities for adoration and Reconciliation.

“Many good priests and bishops in this country feel the urgency to evangelize the world. But the old ‘program’ paradigm is not working. Parish programs do not evangelize the world outside the parish,” Jason Simon, President of the Evangelical Catholic, said.

The conference provided priests with the opportunity to gather with others who share similar convictions on evangelization, learn how an outdated understanding of the parish could be holding them back, and how to leverage their influence to activate a movement of missionaries.

“This conference gives priests a crisp vision for an apostolic church, shows the priests how they can lead into this vision, and gives them practical training to be maximally effective in making this shift,” Simon continued.

This event was co-sponsored by OSV Institute for Catholic Innovation, which led a pre-event gathering designed to help priests hear and respond to the ministerial needs of their flock more effectively.

YOU ARE FUELING HEROIC WORK FOR APOSTOLIC ADVANCEMENT At the conference, the EC hosted the Avery Cardinal Dulles Apostolic Activity Award Banquet to honor those showing exemplary leadership in response to Jesus’ Great Commission of “Go, and make disciples of all nations.” The EC wanted to honor and hold up these award winners for emulation so that more leaders would follow their example of evangelical fruitfulness.

The awards come from a question first posed at the Second Vatican Council of “How does the Church of the 20th century respond to Master’s Ultimate Commandment?” In answer to the question, the Council sought to clarify the Church’s mission both within (ad intra) and reaching outward (ad extra) to more fruitfully make disciples.

Fr. John Riccardo was honored with the ad intra award for his work with his apostolate Acts XXIX, which exists to maximize strategic opportunities to proclaim and advance the gospel amongst clergy and lay people through formation programs, media and mission-launching experiences.

Joe LaRussa was once a business owner but now works solely for Convene, an organization whose mission is to connect, equip and inspire Christian CEOs and business owners to grow exceptional businesses and become higher-impact leaders to honor God. LaRussa was the recipient of the ad extra award. Joe uses his work and secular activity to connect with men and mentor them deeper into discipleship. He is also a leader in the San Diego Cursillo community, leads an evangelization small

group, and helps to run a “Whiskey and the Word” men’s group to draw people into the life of Jesus in the Church. Succinctly, his passion is to "turn good Catholic men into raving disciples."

The EC wanted to honor and hold up these award winners for emulation so that more leaders would follow their example of evangelical fruitfulness.

There were a total of 25 individuals nominated across both categories, ad intra and ad extra. Many among them are engaged in work answering the Great Commission that has resulted in prolific advancement of the Gospel. Winners were selected from a nominating committee made up of leaders from five different dioceses and organizations such as FOCUS and Notre Dame’s McGrath Institute for Church Life.

“Cardinal Avery Dulles was a theologian and faithful priest concerned with a vision of evangelization that could respond to modern men and women. In recognizing the two men that they have, the Evangelical Catholic is carrying on the legacy of this beloved teacher, mentor, and friend to so many in the U.S. Church,” affirmed Dr. Timothy O’Malley, a member of the nominating committee and Director of Education at the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame.

REACHING MORE WITH IMPACT EVENTS YOU ARE MAKING AN IMPACT OUTSIDE OF REACH MORE PARTNERSHIPS An Impact Event is an opportunity for a parish, campus, diocese, or other organization to organize EC formation and training for their community, whether or not they are currently partnered with us.

During an Impact Event, an EC ministry consultant visits the ministry on-location to host workshops, Mission Nights, or a combination of events. Impact Events are available as additional support for current partners, or as one-time formation events for potential partners.

Because of your support, we have been able to offer comprehensive formation and training to organizations with unique missionary needs outside of a typical Reach More partnership. See how your support is reaching more: • You are Equipping Seminarians in Virginia + In the Diocese of Richmond, VA, we are launching a system to equip seminarians for apostolic leadership in their future priesthood. Seminarians in the diocese will experience summer formation through mission training, one-on-ones, and Impact Events. Over time, this period of additional formation will equip seminarians to enter their priesthood with a clear apostolic vision and concrete missionary formation.

• You are Shifting the Paradigm for Men in Milwuakee + We partnered with the Men of Christ apostolate in Milwuakee, WI to equip faithful and motivated men for their mission field. Upwards of 40 men experienced a condensed version of the mission training, which included 6 weeks of formation sessions, live Impact Events, and opportunities for one-on-one formation.

YOUR SUPPORT KEEPS US CLOSE TO OUR MISSION PARTNERS Your generous support has allowed us to make room or what really matters: making sure our mission partners have the tools and consulting they need to create a fruitful and sustainable culture of missionary discipleship in their communities. Because of you, we don't have to worry about making ends meet. We can focus on the heart of this call to mission, and truly be on the pulse of Jesus' heartbeat.

We asked our team what the most rewarding part of their job was. Here's what they said: • André Lesperance, Senior Content Creator and Ministry Consultant: “ My favorite part about being a consultant is getting to see up close and personal what the joys and struggles are of the people and ministries we serve. I'm honored to walk with people as they serve in the trenches. Relatedly, as a content creator for the EC, I love pouring what we learn from clients' experiences back into our content and consulting, so that our Reach More services and resources are constantly improving.

• Kendra de Ramos, Lead Consultant “ I enjoy witnessing Point People experience the power of investing deeply in people. They are in a privileged setting of watching the Holy Spirit illuminate people's prayer lives and many light bulb moments of realizing they have a personal mission to fulfill that is unique to them - their vocation, their workplace, their family, their neighborhood. It's so exciting to receive their zeal and enthusiasm as people come alive as disciple makers.

• Julie Rose, Consultant Manager “ God gave me a heart for pastors and lay ministers. The heartbeat of my calling is to support leaders who would otherwise feel alone on mission to raise up missionary disciples and to reach the lost. Their joys are my joys and their griefs are my griefs.

• Mari Pablo, Ministry Consultant “ Being able to walk with others and help them discover and live out their full potential. Being open to the Spirit to get creative on how best to serve those in their communities. I love the weekly accompaniment we're blessed to have with our ministry partners.

• Peter Andrastek, Senior Consultant “ My favorite thing is helping priests and pastoral workers to develop a new imaginative vision for lay holiness and apostolate, and then being on the "tip of the spear" helping them to change the paradigm for how they operate according to this vision.

• Cody LeClaire, Mission Advancement Officer “ I love the opportunity to pray with our point people, helping to elevate their eyes to the eternal work they are doing, so that the Lord's yolk in ministry is light and full of joy for them.

"I appreciate that The Evangelical Catholic does not seek merely to build Evangelical Catholic programs.

Rather, by empowering lay Catholics for personal apostolates, local ministries expand their evangelical impact in the surrounding community according to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Continuing to look for avenues for further partnership, I fully support their work in the Catholic Church."

The Most Reverend Timothy P. Broglio Archbishop for the Military Services, USA President of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops
