Programs |  Parish Religious Educators  |  Resources

One of our primary goals is to work with the Bishop, our chief catechist, by promoting life-long learning and excellence in religious education in our culturally diverse Diocese. We are witnesses of Jesus and we strive to make disciples for Jesus.

We constantly communicate with religious education administrators, pastors, principals, youth ministers, and coordinators of RCIA so that we can respond to their needs. We offer a Faith Formation Curriculum program that provides for total parish religious education – training parish leaders, offering ongoing catechist formation, and providing programs for Parish Catechists, Youth Ministers, RCIA Catechists and Catholic School Teachers.

In order to unify our Diocesan efforts toward total Catholic education, we collaborate with the Offices of the Superintendent of Schools, Liturgy, and other Diocesan agencies. We also collaborate with regional and national groups with similar concerns and cooperate with the Diocesan education Commission to serve as a resource in all areas involving Religious Education.
