The Greek word for evangelize (eu‧ag‧ge‧li′zo‧mai), (Hebrew(bis‧sar′), means "bring good news" (Isaiah 52:7)(Nahum 1:15) so, in The Bible, an evangelizer is a "proclaimer of good news"and by this definition, ALL Christians were, and are supposed to be today, evangelizers (Matthew 24:14). In Jesus' day, even under severe persecution, ALL Christians, apostles AND disciples, continued to evangelize (Luke 9:1+6)(Acts 8:1+4)
Jesus, of course, was the most well known evangelizer, speaking constantly of the Good news of God's kingdom and teaching others to do the same (Luke 4:17-21; 8:1)(Matthew 28:19+20)(Matthew 10; Luke 10)
The angels announced 'good news' to the shepherds(Luke 2:10, 11) making them evangelizers, and God himself is the original evangelizer...sponsoring the spreading of "good news' (Galatians 3:8; Revelation 10:7), as he sent people out to declare this 'good news' of what his son, Jesus, would do for mankind (Acts 10:34-36).
Individually, Paul was certainly an avid evangelizer (Acts 20:20-21) and
Philip and Mark were both KNOWN by many as evangelizers Acts 8:26-40, but ALL Christians are required to evangelize....to 'Preach the good news of God's Kingdom'.(Matthew 24:14)
