Catechists needed for the new school year

All Catechists will be provided with full training and support. We will have meetings and
formation sessions (these are important for your faith development as well). If you have a love
of working with children and you can share your faith with them, please take some time to
think seriously about this opportunity. Catechists need to be confirmed Catholics and at least
sophomores in high school.

A Catechist is an ordinary person who is extraordinary because he or she teaches as
Jesus did! A Catechist is a sign of Christian hope in a world turned in on itself. A
Catechist is the "Good News" in flesh and blood in today's world. A Catechist is faithful
to the past, open to the future, but especially dedicated to deepening the faith of the
present generation. A Catechist is the Bible and the church in human form. A Catechist
is the busiest person in the parish who somehow finds time to do those important things
which everyone else is too busy to do.

YOU could be a Catechist! Are you interested in sharing your faith with the young
people of our parish? Are you interested in helping them along their journey? Catechists
are parents, grandparents, parishioners who have not had children, high school teens
who have been confirmed...people just like you. If you are interested in being part of our
parish catechetical team, please call Mrs. Donna Cascino, Director of Religious
Education, 630-766-4417.
