NET Canada celebrates 30 years in Ottawa – Gala tickets on sale now

 

In 1994, James Mikulasik and Tiffany Scott, two Canadians who were missionaries in Minnesota, responded to an invitation from Archbishop Emeritus Marcel Gervais, to come to Ottawa and NET Canada was born.

NET Canada began as one travelling retreat team, but quickly expanded with the addition of more teams. Soon, parishes began requesting more follow-up to NET retreats and parish ministry teams were born.

Since the founding of NET Canada, over 700 young adults have served as NET missionaries and over 300,000 young people have heard the Gospel through an encounter with a NET team. Young people’s lives are being transformed through an encounter with Jesus Christ, and we hope to continue bringing hope and re-engaging youth in their Catholic faith for years to come!

Join us in celebrating 30 years of NET Canada on February 27th at St. Elias Banquet Hall (750 Ridgewood Ave, Ottawa, ON) with special guest speaker, Bishop Scott McCaig, CC!
