Catechist Formation Guidelines
Our Rationale
Catechists play a pre-eminent role in the evangelizing mission of the Church. This role of passing on the faith as well as deepening our understanding and commitment to living the faith is a privilege, right and responsibility from our Baptism in Christ. It is vital that each person called to participate in this mission have a mature and living, adult faith as well as the understanding and skill to share it effectively.
In order to achieve an evangelizing catechesis, the pastoral offices of the Diocese of Raleigh collaborate with parishes, schools and deaneries, as well as resource with other catechetical and pastoral ministry organizations to provide a blend of onsite and online formation.
