Sent to Evangelize Prayer Service Celebration

Schedule a prayer celebration to help young people reflect on their role in evangelization and accept their mission to evangelize. Our “Sent to Evangelize” prayer service takes its focus from Matthew 28:16–20 and includes roles for multiple readers. The accompanying Commitment Cards are a concrete reminder for young people to take to heart their role as disciples.

The prayer celebration is from Christ Our Life, Grade 8. Use battery-operated candles if traditional candles are not feasible in your meeting space.
