The Spiritual Formation of Catechists: 10 Simple Ways to Transform Volunteers into Witnesses

The General Directory for Catechesis outlines a variety of ways in which a catechist should be formed, but above all, it says, catechist formation "nourishes the spirituality of the catechist," so that his or her work is born out of a personal "witness of life" (GDC, 239).

In this webinar for catechetical leaders, parish DRE/CRE's, and diocesan leaders in evangelization and catechesis, Jared Dees, creator of the popular website TheReligionTeacher.com, presents ten simple ways for ongoing spiritual formation of catechists.

The purpose of these catechist formation ideas will be to transform catechists from well-meaning volunteers and generous parents into passionate witnesses of the Gospel.
