This began on November 1, 2000. Pope John Paul II has called for new methods of evangelization. At the direction of Cardinal Bevilacqua, the Archdiocese continues to attempt to make full use of the available technology with electronic evangelization. Towards this end, the Archdiocese also plans to hold controlled chat room discussions beginning in January. Visitors can learn about the Catholic Catechism, find Readings and Psalms, locate Jubilee Churches and Shrines and read about the parish-based Disciples in Mission program.
Visitors can also explore their faith through Disciples on the Internet.
This innovative program allows visitors to e-mail a question about morality or Church teaching that will be answered by a priest. Since March of 1999, over nine thousand questions have been answered. A library of frequently asked questions is also available on the site. Reconciliation 2000 will take place between December 10th and December 23rd in all 283 Archdiocesan parishes.
