"I think the Church does not do enough to go out and seek new members like the Evangelicals do."

I agree. But, it's not "THE CHURCH" that's at fault. Blame local administration. One of the reasons is that most laypeople don't feel comptent to teach Protestants. Most times, our lives should be such that they provide an opportunity for us to witness in love on a one-on-one basis. Evangelization doesn't have to be a formal program of "Search, Seek, Teach." Get a good foundation in what the Church teaches, and look for opportunities to share what you know with friends.
