Mailing Catholic Tracts to Non-Catholics

Pillar of Fire is great.

What I would REALLY like is something like a Watchtower Watch publication. Something that counters all the false claims in the latest Watchtower issue.

We kept a copy close by the door to give to anyone looking to convert us saying “I’ll take your pamphlet if you take mine.” Now we live in an apartment community not conducive to door to door, so I had to pull it off the shelf to crack open while posting this - we have two copies. Its the best introductory pamphlet I’ve ever seen on Catholicism.

Pax et bonum

Why don’t you reserve the common meeting room at the apartments one evening a week and hold a Catholic informational discussion/study!! For me an apartment setting would be perfect for evangelization.

I’d respectfully disagree that mailings are not a good idea.

I stuff a tract – actually a listing of selected Catholic websites, including this one, under the heading, “Want to know what the Catholic Church really teaches?” – in every bill I mail. Since I glance at all the stuffers I get with the bills, I thought this would be “fair.”

Do I expect great results? I don’t know – it’s up to the Holy Spirit. Maybe one person in a hundred will keep the insert and look at it later. I’ve heard so many stories of people flipping channels and having something cathch their interest on EWTN – Marcus Grodi saw Fr. Groeschel for the first time flipping through channels – I think this is worth a try. It may not be as effective as targeting a friend with a book or an invitation to a cup of coffee, but sending out inserts in mailings doesn’t exclude using other more personal methods, as well.

God bless!
