DEFINITION
Evangelization is the proclamation of the Gospel. Engaging the online world through the internet is the most effective way to ensure that evangelization would reach every corner of the Earth.
Online evangelization is a mixed discipline covering social media, Information and Communications Technology, religious education and social sciences. It is a free public good contributing to world peace. Associated with this comes an internet-related responsibility to ensure that our services are free from fraud, and promote harmony, mutual understanding and respect (hence peace and development) in human society.

- At the forefront of internet technology - Offers 3 languages: English, TC and SC - Study and share online under the guidance
of tutors or catechists - Community building through sharing - Valuable e-Literature: Units, Encounters
and videos to download from online Library - Recognition of Online Catecumenate and
students baptised worldwide - EVCourse certificate much sought after
![Page 19: EVSchool as an example of Online Community Building](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daf5503460f94a9cd8a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
SWOT-ANALYSIS
WEAKNESSES: - Due to bandwidth limitations, in some
countries speed of internet is slow - Emails may be flooded with junk mails,
IT system subject to attacks by hackers, website could be blocked
- No physical contact hence strict supervision of students impossible; silent students or “lurkers” emerge
- Cannot control rate of student enrolment
![Page 20: EVSchool as an example of Online Community Building](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daf5503460f94a9cd8a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
SWOT-ANALYSIS
OPPORTUNITIES: - Can positively respond to Pope John
Paul II’s call on “Internet: a new forum for proclaiming the Gospel”
- Unlike the traditional person-to-person evangelization, this online mode of evangelization can reach, worldwide, everybody who has a PC at home. Online evangelizers do not even need to travel.

SWOT-ANALYSIS
THREATS: - Cyber crimes. To prevent these from
happening, we enforce a strict Code of Conduct which applies to all students and staff
- Statistically, about 60 out of 100 enquirers could not establish faith even after six months at the Pre-Catechumenate; sadly they would leave the School prematurely.
