Catechists

• CORI Form (required every Fiscal Year)
• Code of Conduct
• Protecting God's Children

The “who” of our faith (Jesus Christ) is the reason behind our faith formation classes.  The Catechist is a key part of formation, inspiring youth to grow in relationship with Jesus Christ and his body, the Church. “What we especially need in these times are credible witnesses who make the Gospel visible by their lives as well as by their words, and who reawaken the attraction for Jesus Christ, for the beauty of God,” remarked Pope Francis (Address to the Plenary of the Pontifical Council for Promoting the New Evangelization, October 14, 2013).

Catechists inspire and form their students through modeling, mentoring, and witness.  Many people catechise in the Church, teaching the principles of the faith to those preparing for a sacrament.  Parents and godparents, for example, have a particular role to play in the education of children in the faith after baptism, and pastors have a particular responsibility to see to the “catechetical formation” of the people in their parishes.
