VOLUNTEER

Dear Catholic friend,

 

It’s hard to believe -- but nearly 60% of New Jersey Catholics are not planning to vote this November! As Catholics, we have a responsibility to share our Catholic voices and values in our parishes, communities, state and country. And voting is central to that responsibility.

 

Our mission at Catholic Engagement is pretty simple: we want our Catholic voices and values heard and respected in November and beyond!

 

To fulfill this mission, Catholic Engagement has launched a super-easy SwipeRed app in New Jersey that is a great way to get involved and make a difference. It’s simple and easy, takes just a few minutes, and helps us connect with friends and family in our Catholic communities. Here’s why you’ll love it as much as we do:​ 

 

• Quick and Simple: In just a few minutes, you can easily text, message or call friends to remind them to vote for candidates who share our Catholic values. 

• Spread Our Faith’s Message: Share Catholic stories with your friends and family. It’s a personal way to inspire others to vote and engage with our faith in mind. 

• Connect with Community: SwipeRed matches your contacts with the public voter list, so you’re reaching out to fellow Catholic voters you already know. It’s like chatting with friends after Mass, with a purpose (but unfortunately without the donuts)! 

• Keep Friends on Track: SwipeRed lets you see if your friends have voted and send friendly reminders if they haven’t. Imagine nudging your fellow parishioner you see every Sunday to get to the polls—it’s a small action with a huge impact! 

• Make a Real Difference: Campaigns using SwipeRed have seen voter turnout jump by over 10%. Your efforts can help us elect leaders who prioritize family and faith. 

• It’s Fun and Flexible: Whether you’re texting, emailing, or posting on social media, SwipeRed makes it easy and rewarding. Plus, you can earn badges and points for inviting friends to a Catholic Engagement event or prayer group: it’s like a game that does good! 

• Safe and Secure: Your info and contacts are completely secure and privacy protected, so you can focus on sharing the Catholic message without worry.

 

Ready to jump into our new political Evangelization and stand up for Catholic values? 

Download SwipeRed from the App Store or in Google Play pick Catholic Engagement and start connecting today with Catholic friends and family to boost our united Catholic impact. It’s a small-time commitment with a huge payoff for our families, parishes, communities and states.

 

Deo Gratias,
