Allocutio
Fr. Peffley gave some tips on doing door-to-door. Every senior praesidium should have one to three teams going out each week. The largest denomination is Catholics; the second largest is fallen away Catholics. Mary uses you as an instrument of grace. Take literature with you. Have packets in clear plastic bags. Make up about 40 packets. If people are not home, leave the packet under the doormat, the flowerpot or inside the screen door. Do not leave it on the doorknob. It would be a good idea to have the image of the Sacred Heart on top of the packet, so it is the first thing they see. The packet could contain the following materials: the schedule of the Masses and confessions; a letter from the pastor inviting them to come to the church; any information on CCD classes and RCIA; information on the Eucharist; a mini Catechism like “Pillar of Fire;” and the parish bulletin.
