Evangelization

This spring Trapezium Brewing Co. in Petersburg, Va., launched the second release of his signature “Father Brian’s Bourbon Barrel Brown Ale,” where hundreds of family, friends and past parishioners toasted the beloved priest.

Lay men and women carrying out missionary work in parishes, either on a full time or volunteer basis, are helping Catholic clergy expand the evangelizing reach of their ministry wherever they are, from urban centers to prairie towns.

Whether he is chatting with fellow travelers, buying gift cards for the members of a flight crew or speaking to attendees at his popular “60 Minutes for Jesus” presentations, Father Sichko regularly travels every weekend — coast to coast and across the globe — with a simple aim.
