Welcome to the web site of the Secretariat for Evangelization. We offer many services, resources and programs to assist Cardinal Justin Rigali in strengthening and spreading the Catholic faith in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.

Look for information and resources related to liturgy, family life, marriage preparation, adult faith formation, dialogue with our ecumenical and interreligious brothers and sisters, respect for human life, ministry to Black Catholics and migrants and refugees. Visit the Pontifical Mission Societies page for ways to support our missionaries.

It is our hope that these resources will assist you in your commitment to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ.

Please check back often for updates to this site.
