Our parishes are in need of catechists to assist with our Faith Formation program on Wednesdays after school and Sunday nights. This is an incredible opportunity to not only give back by being true disciples of Christ and teachers of the faith but also to receive! There are so many blessings that come from being a catechist--not only will you grow in your knowledge of our Faith but you will also experience the joy that comes with giving. Please click on the link 'What is a Catechist?' below for more information about what a catechist is and what they are called to do.

What is a Catechist?

Catechists are called to give what they have first received. Therefore, the spirituality of a catechist is very important. This year, catechists will be invited to meet regularly with a spiritual mentor to assist both with their own relationship with Christ as well as helping to leading others on their walk with Him. As each catechist grows in their personal discipleship, so will they be inspired to share with others "everything about this life" (Acts 5:20).
