HOW TO START CaFE IN YOUR PARISH
Have you experienced the CaFE programme and would like to have it in your parish?
Here is how the Archdiocesan CaFE Promotion Team (ACPT) can help you:
1. Approach your parish priest and tell him about your CaFE experiences and how beneficial it is for re-evangelizing the whole parish. Tell him about the ACPT who is running and promoting CaFE for all the parishes of Singapore, with the approval of the Archbishop, Nicholas Chia. The ACPT is accountable to the Archbishop of Singapore and the Catholic Evangelization Services of UK who are the creators and owners of CaFE.
2 If your parish priest is keen, give the Chairperson of ACPT, Gwen Pinto, a call at (65)9007 0987 or email us at acptcafe@gmail.com
3 The ACPT will meet with the parish priest and other church leaders to give a presentation on CaFE so as to give them a comprehensive idea of what CaFE is and how it can be used in the parish.
4 With a few committed persons from the parish, the ACPT which comprises of 14 team members, will help the parish to start running the CaFE programme for its parishioners. The ACPT will share its experience in running CaFE as well as provide facilitator enrichment. During its workshops it will also help the parish CaFE Team in matters like logistics, administration, hospitality and publicity.
5 The ACPT will minister together with the Parish CaFE Team when they run their first module in the parish. The parish will also be given a Parish Coordinator who will continue to help the parish and be its link with the ACPT.
6 Some suitable parishioners who attended the first CaFE module can be invited to join the parish CaFE Team.
