"Walk together. Work together. Love each other." - Pope Francis, June 4, 2017

The African Ancestry Ministry and Evangelization Network (AAMEN) is established by the Diocese of Raleigh to foster the mission of the Roman Catholic Church:

• Spread the Gospel
• Celebrate the Sacraments
• Form a faith community

To do this ministry, we must create an atmosphere in which individuals of African Ancestry:

• Can maintain their identity
• Heighten their visibility
• Enhance their lives as Catholics

The ministry is concerned with nurturing those in the faith, reconciling those fallen away from the faith, and offering a church home to the un-churched through conversion to the Catholic faith.
