The Catechetical Institute - Franciscan University

The Diocese of Trenton has partnered with the Catechetical Institute, Franciscan University of Steubenville. This new online formation platform will provide the required basic and ongoing formation for persons involved in ministry in both parishes and catholic schools throughout the diocese.  This partnership is being made available through the Diocese of Trenton’s Annual Catholic Appeal.

The primary purpose of this partnership is to equip individuals involved in ministry grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ and the riches of the Church's teaching and apply it to life experiences and the ministry’s that they serve.   The Catechetical Institute has created online workshops, led by professors at the university and other experts in the field. These workshops are ideal for parish and Catholic school leaders, catechists and catholic school teachers, Adult Faith Formation, RCIA, and youth ministry teams, and anyone who desires ongoing formation and spiritual enrichment.

• Online workshops completed at your own pace. 
• Written responses following each segment
• Coming Soon!  periodic discussions in small groups or with assigned mentor.
