The role of the Evangelist is the preaching of the gospel or the practice of giving information about a particular doctrine or set of beliefs to others with the intention of converting others to the Christian Faith. The word Evangelist is found three times in the N.T, it is an anglicized form of a Greek word which has the same root as the word translated “gospel” or “good news”. Thus, an evangelist is one who tells good news or a proclaimer of the gospel. An evangelist is one who publicly proclaims the gospel. Evangelists are fishers of men (Matthew 4:19: Luke 5:10) as the slave girl at Philippi said about Paul and his fellow workers: “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to you the way of Salvation” Although the Evangelist has an important responsibilities in our church, their most distinctive work is to preach the gospel to non-Christians
