A $100 PRIZE will be awarded to the winner from each grade. This year’s theme is “explain how young Catholics can evangelize our faith to friends and families who have turned away from religion and encourage them to return to the church and embrace the sacraments”. In an essay of 500- 750 words, explain how young Catholics can evangelize our faith to families and friends who have turned away from religion and encourage them to return to the Church and embrace the sacraments. An entry form must accompany the essay. The essays must reflect the assigned theme and be the student’s original work. The student’s name should only appear on the official form which must be stapled to the essay.
