I recently came across a good article from a good Web site written by a good resource (someone you should know). The article, “Setting the Stage for Evangelizing Parents,” is written by Patrice Spirou, the Assistant Director of Religious Education for the Office of Formation and Discipleship in the Archdiocese of Atlanta. I had the pleasure of meeting Patrice when I was in Atlanta not too long ago and even had the opportunity to enjoy sitting in on a workshop she did, which was delightful. Patrice is someone to keep your eye on!

The Web site, 21st Century Catholic Evangelization, is sponsored by the Evangelization Committee of the National Conference for Catechetical Leadership, and is designed to serve Catholic leaders in their ministry of evangelization. Be sure to peruse the site for some excellent resources from many outstanding catechetical leaders from all over the country.
