Catechist Formation
Catechists who work with children in the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program have completed at least 100 hours of training in theology, child development, and the Montessori method.
Adults who have completed this training have reflected that it was “life changing,” and enriched their faith beyond measure.
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is an international program which many have to travel great distances to complete their training, but we are lucky to be the home of an Internationally Recognized Formation Leader of all three levels right here at St. Patrick – St. Anthony Church.
Training is offered periodically, and is open for anyone who may be interested to learn more about their faith and how to talk about faith to the children in their lives.
