Glenmary Home Missioners is seeking a full time Lay Evangelizer for North Hampton County North Carolina.

The Lay Evangelizer is a co-worker of the Glenmary Home Missioners with the expectation s/he will adopt the missionary charism of Glenmary. The lay evangelizer will be the first full time evangelizer in a county that has never had a Catholic Church.   They will relate to either the parish closest to them or if they desire greater Catholic presence may relate to the nearest Glenmary parish.  The vision of the ministry of this position is to focus beyond the immediate life of the parish reaching out to the unchurched, rather than directly providing nurture or pastoral care to an established Catholic community.

The person in this position is to carry out the task of evangelization of non-Christians* in the Glenmary mission(s) where assigned with the goals of deepening relationships, promoting dialogue, living charity, and prophetically sharing the fullness of the gospel, with non-Christians.

*The target audience for this position is non-Christians. This target audience is delineated as individuals who self-identify, or are living, as ‘unaffiliated,’ ‘unchurched,’ or NONEs (indicating that they have no religious preference), even though they may have some background in Christianity. Though a Lay Evangelizer will likely engage ‘inactive’ Catholics, this group is not the primary audience for this position.

The Lay Evangelizer will live in North Hampton County, North Carolina.  This is a full time Exempt position eligible for benefits and 401(k) Plan.
