A Statement of the U.S. Catholic Bishops
We remember and give thanks for all those who have embraced the mission of catechesis throughout the ages. We remember that "catechesis is intimately bound up with the whole of the Church's life." (CT, no. 13), and we know that the most effective catechesis is integrated with liturgy, sacraments, and works of justice and charity.
We are excited to welcome more than 50 parish leaders, Catholic school staff and Chancery staff, all recommended by their pastor, to our formation program for ministry leaders beginning on October 22nd. Phase One of the program includes modules in Ecclesiology, The Catholic Faith and Sacramental Theology. Professors from the University of Dallas Ann & Joe O. Neuhoff Institute for Ministry and Evangelization will instruct all of the modules both in person and with synchronous learning. Please pray for the students, the professors and everyone involved in providing new and innovative ways to understand the teachings of the church and share them with others!
