Popular Catholic author and chastity speaker Jason Evert led programs for Notre High School parents and students April 10-11.

Mr. Evert headlined an assembly for parents at the Chattanooga high school on April 10 and then on April 11 spoke to Notre Dame students and also Knoxville Catholic High School students who traveled to hear his dynamic talk on chastity from a Catholic perspective.

Mr. Evert founded Totus Tuus Press and Chastity Project, an organization that promotes chastity primarily to high school and college students. He and his wife, Crystalina Evert, have spoken to more than 1 million people on five continents about the virtue of chastity. After working for Catholic Answers in San Diego for more than a decade, the couple moved to Denver and began a new ministry focused solely on promoting purity: Chastity Project.

Chastity Project believes that young people play a pivotal role in the new evangelization, and therefore invites them to launch chastity projects within their schools and churches to promote the good news of purity to their peers.
