Although well defined, very little was available to teach Catholics how to do it. Dave and Leo Rudegeair met with the Archbishop of Baltimore, Cardinal William Keeler, about establishing a lay ministry to equip Catholics to evangelize. The Cardinal responded with enthusiasm and established ChristLife as an apostolate of the Archdiocese of Baltimore in 1995. in 2009, after helping parishes to evangelize for over a decade, the ministry began developing the ChristLife Evangelization Process. Since then, we’ve partnered with parishes in the United States and internationally to offer the ChristLife Evangelization Process to help anyone to discover, follow and learn to share the Lord Jesus with others.
