Marketing Evangelization and Catechesis

The Marketing Committee was established to implement The Catechetical Task Force Recommendation #7:

Therefore, we recommend the development of a comprehensive systemic and systematic Archdiocesan marketing/marketing communications plan for catechesis, which will:

Encompass the spectrum of adults, young adults, youth, and children.

bullet

Use language that is culturally appropriate for all ethnic groups within the Archdiocese.

bullet

Provide a general parish-marketing plan with templates that can be adapted for parish use.

bullet

Provide assistance to those parishes identified as needing special one-on-one marketing assistance.

bullet

Communicate the existing Archdiocesan policies, content and models.

bullet

Recruit catechetical leaders and volunteer catechists.
Develop Archdiocesan web pages for young adults, youth and children.

bullet

Provide appropriate communication methods for special needs groups.

Parallel the marketing plan for Catholic schools.
