The task of evangelizing all people constitutes the essential mission of the Church, a duty and a mission which the widespread and profound changes in present-day society render ever more urgent. At stake is the eternal salvation of persons, the goal and the fulfillment of human history and the universe. - Pope Benedict XVI

REBECCA ShRAkE
I came to the University of Minnesota after 12 years of Catholic school education and I thought I was set in my faith. Thinking I didnt need much support, I surrounded myself with non-religious friends. For the first time in all my years of schooling, my faith began to waver under the pressures of the partying college lifestyle. I was in danger of becoming a statistic: yet another Catholic falling away from the faith during college. Then I heard about SPO. A friend of mine was living in the womens Household and invited me over for dinner. Soon I joined a small group and started building new relationships with women who cared about me, who had a beautiful sense of selfworth, and whose lives were centered on God. Deep down I longed to experience the source of their joy, but outwardly I was too afraid to break away from the shallow pleasures I was living for. deeper.

STuDENT STORY

I struggle to find words to describe the transformation that happened. Simply put, God captivated my heart and drew me into the SPO community where my faith came alive and grew

Now I live in one of the womens Households at the U of M. These sisters in Christ call me on to grow as a daughter of God, and are amazing witnesses to the abundant life that comes from trusting in the Lord. God worked through SPO to help me find Him again. Now its my turn to share with others the joy of living for the Lord.

Deep down i longed to experience the source of their joy

So I tried to ignore this desire for a renewed relationship with God and I stayed on the fringes of SPO, but as my longing for the Lord grew, I couldnt hide any longer. To this day,

JiMMY ABREu
The last six months have been quite the whirlwind! My wife and I are blessed to work for SPO as Mission Directors, and back in the summer we uprooted and moved all the way from Minnesota to Texas to lead the mission here. Not only that but our first child was just born! I first heard about SPO when I was at Seton Hall University in New Jersey. One of my friends on campus introduced me to a guy who was living in the SPO Household, who invited me over for dinner. I was surprised by what I found. Here was a group of Catholic men that chose to live together to grow in their faith and discern their vocation. They had a genuine desire for the Lord and for brotherhood. I had no idea that this kind of thing even existed. Christ was drawing me to himself through SPO. When I graduated, I applied to be a missionary and was accepted. Its been an incredible journey moving to Minnesota to serve there, meeting and marrying an SPOer, the love of my life, and then off to Texas. I love SPOs vision of community on mission. To me, its better to have a whole community on mission, because a community is more effective than one person and more fun too! All I can say is Im sold! I have seen

STAFF STORY
countless men and women come to know Christ and grow closer to Him through SPO. I know that I want to do nothing more than bring others to Jesus and I can do that through SPO. Not to mention I wouldnt have Sarah and Anna if it werent for SPO. We are grateful to be an SPO missionary family. Thank you, God, and thank you, SPO!

A community is more effective than one person

NEWS FROM OuR MiSSiON CENTERS

TRuST ONE gREATER

SPO hosted two Trust One Greater evangelistic events: one at Benedictine College in Kansas, and the other at the University of Minnesota. Over 1,500 college students and young adults attended.

kANSAS

They were nights of deep prayer and worship with Catholic recording artist Matt Maher. Fr. Craig Vasek of St. Philips in Bemidji, MN captivated those at the University of Minnesota with his message, while Archbishop Naumann of the Archdiocese of Kansas City, KS (pictured above) gave an inspiring exhortation at Benedictine College: Thats really my prayer for all of you tonight, that you might have that same faith in Jesus Christ, that same personal relationship with Him that will give you the power and the strength to endure, to overcome, to triumph, just as His cross triumphed. Lives were changed! Students turned back to God and grew in faith.

MiNNESOTA

Afterwards, one wrote: Amazing! I want to be a priest now!

SPO-New Jersey continues to go from strength to strength. Students are turning back to Christ and His Church. One recently commented, College for me is no longer simply about having fun on the weekends; its a mission field for me to share what I have received. SPO brought me to the Lord Jesus and to a new life, and for that I am so blessed. Thank you to all our supporters, especially Archbishop Myers and Congressman Mike Ferguson, who was the honoree at our benefit banquet this year, receiving the Saint Pauls Outreach Servant Leadership Award.

NEW JERSEY

SPO-Arizona, one of our newest Mission Centers, is taking a big step this year, with three full-time missionaries now serving at the campus of Arizona State University. When SPO opens at a campus it works closely with three important groups. First the diocesan Bishop and his representative on campus; next the students who have shown interest in establishing SPO at their campus; finally SPO collaborates with local Catholic supporters to get the word out and to ensure the financial stability of SPO into the future. Please keep this new SPO Mission Center in your prayers.

For the past few years, college students from the Archdiocese of Miami have attended SPOs School of the New Evangelization. We have had students from various campuses in Miami that include: the University of Miami, Florida International University, Miami-Dade College, and Nova Southeastern University. Students and campus leaders from new loca-

tions catch a vision for SPO through their experience of the School of the New Evangelization, and this is one of the ways that SPO expands to new dioceses and campuses.

This year, SPO Mission Leaders have taken up residence in Morgantown, West Virginia to serve SPOs newest campus, West Virginia University, an offshoot of the Ohio Mission Center. They have been hosting Mens and Womens Nights, Bible Studies and Lords Day celebrations among other community-building events in collaboration with the universitys Newman Center. In Columbus, SPO continues to grow, including adding two new Households filled with students on mission for Christ at Ohio State and Ohio Dominican.

Our Texas Mission Center has launched a Formation in Christian Living Program in the diocese of Austin. SPOs Formation Program is one of our most unique offerings, providing students with advanced training to know and live the Catholic faith to the full. Every other week, the students gather to worship God and receive inspiring talks. They also meet one-on-one with a mentor, and together in small groups to encourage one another in living for Christ and sharing him with their peers on campus.

2011-12 iNCOME & ExPENSES

There is an urgent need for SPO as college campuses are battlegrounds for the minds and souls of our young people. SPO is responding to that need and is answering the Churchs call for a New Evangelization by leading students back to Christ and the fullness of the Catholic faith. SPO builds evangelistic communities that provide these students with a unique quality and depth of formation in the Catholic faith and life. Your prayerful and financial support of SPO is critical to this mission and its result: thousands of alumni, who are passionate followers of Christ, continue to shine His light in the world long after they have graduated. Yes, SPO is renewing the Church and evangelizing the culture. - Most Rev. John C. Nienstedt, Archbishop of St. Paul & Minneapolis

We should be even more thankful than ever before that the young men and women of Saint Pauls Outreach are working to bring the Gospel message to their peers at the college level, and helping to foster the formation of conscience and moral values based on the words and actions of Jesus, His Apostles, and the Magisterium of the Church. - Most Rev. John J. Myers, Archbishop of Newark, pictured right with SPO missionaries

ThE YEAR OF FAiTh & ThE NEW EVANgElizATiON


by Gordy DeMarais
Pope Benedict XVI has proclaimed this year as the Year of Faith. It began on October 11th, 2012 and will conclude on November 24th, 2013, the Solemnity of Christ the King. The Holy Father is summoning the faithful to an authentic and renewed conversion to the Lord, the one Savior of the world.1 It is an invitation to each of us to turn to God wholeheartedly in prayer, study, and the sacraments, to experience the joy of abundant life in Christ. But it is also a call to evangelize. We must not keep the greatest gift in the world to ourselves. Evangelization is at the very heart of Christianity. Jesus commissioned His disciples to believe in the Gospel and then go forth to the ends of the earth and proclaim it. This has been the task of every disciple in every age since the birth of the Church on Pentecost. In recent years the Church has sought to awaken us to this essential mission, this sacred privilege. The Church exists to evangelize, proclaimed Pope Paul VI.2 Blessed John Paul II announced this same message with equal urgency and intensity, I sense that the moment has come to commit all of the Churchs energies to a new evangelizationNo believer in Christ, no institution of the Church can avoid this supreme duty: to proclaim Christ to all peoples.3 Pope Benedict is calling the Church to this Year of Faith because, quite simply, we are facing a crisis of faith. We live in a culture that, in the words of the Russian writer and dissident Alexander Solzhenitsyn, has forgotten God. Many live as though God does not exist and if He does exist He has little relevance to ones daily life. The removal of God from our public discourse has profound consequences for the well-being of our culture. Archbishop Rino Fisichella, president of the Pontifical Council for the New Evangelization, suggests that if our culture continues on its current path of being ashamed of the Gospel, ashamed of our Christian history and identity, then it will have no future: The conclusion can only be that of an irreversible decline.4

Nowhere is this crisis of faith more evident than among young people between the ages of 18 and 29. In 1960, fewer than 3% of those in this age group identified themselves as having no religious affiliation (nones). In the most recent survey of the Pew Institute, no less than 32% of this demographic claimed to be nones. Worse still, the religious affiliation of those who claim one is shallow. Indeed, only 14% of Catholic millennials attend weekly Sunday Mass.5 The crisis of faith is also a crisis of morality and a loss of respect for persons. Unsurprisingly, the rejection of God eliminates respect for the dignity of every human being as made in His image and likeness. Without this strong anthropology, human life is cheap and human beings are simply useful to ones success and happiness. The attacks on marriage, life, and religious freedom are merely symptoms of this underlying crisis. It is a crisis that goes far deeper than politics and so requires a solution more fundamental than political activism, important though that is. It requires the renewal of the Church and the evangelization of the culture. Our recent Popes have recognized this, making the call to the New Evangelization a defining priority of their pontificates. They have recognized the erosion of the Christian foundations of European and North American culture and lifestyle. In the New Evangelization, the Christian faithful are exhorted to proclaim the Gospel anew particularly in these places places that require re-evangelizing. The New Evangelization is more than an improvement program for the Church a rearranging of our ecclesial furniture. It is a whole new, or renewed, way of thinking. Archbishop Fisichella warns against reducing the New Evangelization to a slogan. The New Evangelization cannot simply be a new heading for our current approach

SPO MEETS WiTh ThE VATiCAN


Two SPO directors recently had a private meeting at the Vatican with the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization. The purpose of the meeting was to strengthen SPOs relationship with the Vatican and to explore ways we can collaborate. The Council expressed great interest in and support for SPOs Formation and Training Programs.

and programs. Tactical changes will not save us.4 The New Evangelization is a call to rebuild and transform the culture, fostering a civilization of love in the midst of the culture of death. And there is hope! Young people are not satisfied with shallow lives; they are hungry for truth. They just need to be reached effectively. This is what we have been doing in SPO since our founding 27 years ago. We train and send young missionaries into the mission field of colleges and universities to evangelize. We reach students with the life-changing message of the Gospel and form them into mature disciples. Our vision for the future is that we would continue to expand across the country in order to provide every college student with the opportunity to encounter Christ and the beauty of the Catholic faith. I am often asked, What are your programs? I am reluctant to answer with a list of our programs. While we have developed excellent programming in SPO, fundamentally it is not a program that changes peoples lives. What changes peoples lives is the culture, or the environment, that we create on college campuses, of people coming together in genuine, committed love of God thats expressed in their love for one another. We are fostering a culture of life as an alternative to the prevailing secular culture in our universities. Our mission begins with building strong communities of faith on college campuses and is only complete when these young adults are rooted in the life of the Church and living for Christ in every aspect of their daily lives. These are the key questions for us in our work with

college students: Are they experiencing life-changing conversion? Are they being built into living communities of faith? Are they growing in love with God through a life of prayer? Are they learning to live in genuine selfless love of neighbor? Are they continuing to live for Christ and share Him with others long after their college years? This is the kind of transformation that is required if we are truly to change the culture and address the crisis of faith. Amidst this crisis, we must resist the temptation to lose hope and doubt the power of God to change hearts. As St. Paul says, we must fix our eyes not on what is seen, but what is unseen. For what is seen is passing, but what is unseen is eternal.6 I am greatly heartened in this battle by the response of the young men and women who serve as SPO missionaries. One young man texted me recently quoting Psalm 146:3, Put not your hope in princes, and in mortal man who cannot save. These SPO missionaries continue to see with the eyes of faith as they carry out the New Evangelization. May we all be inspired to do the same this year. Truly, a new springtime of Christian life awaits us if we are docile to the Holy Spirit.
