About Invite One Back Training

In light of the National Eucharistic Revival and Congress, St. Paul Street Evangelization has partnered with the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh to offer this unique one day workshop. We will help you discover and understand missionary discipleship based on Eucharistic sending, how to invite others back to Mass who have yet to return and anticipate various conversations, we will review our basic methodology of listen, befriend, proclaim, and invite, and we will review and practice our entire door to door ministry program. All of this is done within a framework of non-confrontational relational ministry.
