Lay Evangelist Certificate
Although all Christians are called to be evangelists (that is, to share the Good News of Jesus Christ), the Church recognizes that certain individuals have particular giftings in this area. The Lay Evangelist program provides you helpful coursework to lead evangelism efforts more effectively in your faith community.
Licenses for all canonical lay ministries are issued by the bishop of one’s diocese. If you have questions about lay licensure, contact your diocesan office.
Each course must be taken for credit. Students follow all the usual BKSM academic policies and procedures. After you have successfully completed the seven courses listed below, BKSM will award you a certificate of completion and forward your transcript to your bishop.
