Catechetical Institute: Franciscan University
Would you like to know how to deepen your prayer and spiritual life, develop a closer relationship with Christ? Do you have questions about the Catholic Church, how to be a Christian parent or spouse in a secular society, how to have a faith-filled marriage, how to share your faith with others?
You can now have these questions answered in the comfort of your own home, at your convenience and at your own pace. No pressure, meetings to drive to, or papers to write.
Good Shepherd Parish is partnering with The Franciscan Catechetical Institute this year to bring a wonderful source of online information and formation to you and your family. Don’t be fooled by the title – this is not a program for Catechists only and This is NOT a typical educational program - It’s not a program at all! It is a way to deepen your own spirituality as you find the answers to questions you have regarding everyday life as a Catholic Christian and the richness of our Church.
You can participate in either of two ways:
You can choose tracks & subjects of interest to you for your own personal edification.
You can also choose from 18 tracks offered that will lead to Diocesan recognition and Certification in areas such as: Catechesis, Music Ministry, African American Faith and Family, Sports Ministry, Ministry of Parenting, Hispanic Faith and Family, Youth Ministry and much, much more. This opportunity is free of charge to our parishioners at Good Shepherd. Take this opportunity to make it a New Year for you, and pray for those you love. You can begin this journey the beginning the week of January 27, 2020 - a mentor from our parish will work with you - more information is available through Trish in the Faith Formation Office, 910-425-5617.
