"If the message of faith is to be heard and lived, the catechist
must be given ongoing formation in the faith in order to
understand it more fully and to speak it clearly, skillfully,
and faithfully."
- The Catechist in the Third Millennium
Our
Diocese offers training and certification for catechists through
formal classes and ongoing workshops and programs. In addition,
catechists may wish to check frequently our recommendations for
resources for use in personal development and in the classroom.
