You have taken on the role as a parish catechist to pass on the faith. The Department of Catechesis will support you on this journey.
We provide training to assist you in this vital role through our catechetical formation and certification process, as well as workshops, webinars, and other events. We also provide resources and tools to equip you in sharing the faith.
"The role of catechist is so important. The work you do, catechesis, is essential to the evangelizing mission of the Church. In this role, you have been called to be a witness for Christ and to hand on the Catholic faith. As the Bishop of the Diocese of Trenton, I want to thank you for responding 'yes' to this privileged ministry, and to let you know that I appreciate all the work you do for our families."
Most Reverend David M. O'Connell, Bishop of Trenton
