Invite a Friend

A church building can be an intimidating place to enter for the first time, but now churches around the world are bringing the Good News to people where they already are: on their devices. You can help share the Good News by inviting others to join our online Masses on Sundays. Here are some ideas to get you started!
Shareable Graphics
​These graphics are all yours! Save these images on your device to share on social media, in a text message, an email, or any other platform of your choosing. Whenever you’re sharing about New Roads' online experience on social media, we encourage you to use the hashtag #newroadsonline.
