Catechetics

Witnessing Christ Around the Archdiocese

Throughout the Archdiocese parishes have been celebrating First Communions and Confirmations within their communities that witness to our God active and alive in our local Church. As June begins, Archbishop Dunn continues to visit parishes to confer the Sacrament of Confirmation.

We invite all the faithful to pray for all youth, young people, and adults who are celebrating these visible signs of God’s grace.  May God continue to guide them in their ongoing faith journey to become missionary disciples of Christ!  Holy Spirit, come!

Priority- Catechesis

Catechesis family Bible together PD 356x200

In addition to a program of evangelization, each Parish must have a process of ongoing formation in faith for children and adults. Growth in our closeness to the Lord and friendship with Him comes not only from study but also from encounter. All of our methods should be holistic in their approach to formation: human, spiritual, intellectual, and pastoral. On this page throughout the year, we will post material and resources to help all of us work towards strengthening these priorities in our parish communities.
