Summer Seminar - July 1, 8, 22, 29, 2008, An opportunity for formation during the summer.
Formed in Faith - a handbook for catechists on all formation opportunities offered by the Archdiocese.
"Formation seeks to enable catechists to transmit the Gospel to those who desire to entrust themselves to Jesus Christ. The purpose of formation, therefore, is to make the catechist capable of communicating... the Gospel message." (GDC 235)
The formation of catechists is a responsibility shared by the archdiocese and the parish, school, or other institution where catechists minister. Formation will help the catechist to grow in maturity as an adult, a believer, and an apostle (cf. GDC 238), and prepare the catechist to carry out the fundamental tasks of catechesis.
