Confirmation Catechists

WHAT is a catechist?

A person who...

...believes in God...who wants to learn more about our faith...who loves children/teens...a grandparent, parent, aunt, uncle, married person, single person, high school student or college student willing to commit a few hours a week sharing faith.

is NOT necessarily a person...

who has studied theology and Scripture....an expert in the faith...a "perfect" person...an experienced teacher.

If you decide to be a catechist...

we will guide you on your journey!  We will provide you with a curriculum guide that includes complete activities and scripts for each class...we will provide the supplies you need for the activities...you will have a program coordinator available to you for ongoing support...you will have opportunities to grow your faith through your interactions with the families, the lessons...you will grow in your knowledge of the faith and also classroom management through tips, fellowship with other catechists, workshops and more!
 
Our Confirmation catechism program begins in January and runs once a week for 10 weeks.  We offer evening and weekend classes for the candidates.  We use a Confirmation-specific program, interactive events, and videos geared toward bringing a deeper understanding of Confirmation. We explore why Confirmation is important, relevant, and how it seals one’s soul for serving Christ as His disciple.   We provide catechists with all materials and training. The lead catechist will guide you throughout the program.  

This is a wonderful opportunity for university students working on obtaining their teaching degree or newly retired teachers to share their faith and their talent with our young people.
