Inter-Diocesan Catechists & RCIA Teams Fall Formation
The church’s mission is not the mission of only a few but a collective effort that includes every member of the church.
We, the baptized, are called and sent out by Christ to open the Church’s doors, accompany others on the journey, and share our experiences.
In response to the Archdiocesan Synod Challenge of the three Overarching Themes,
- Forming the Baptized as Missionary Disciples
- Passing on the Faith to the next generation and others
- Reaching out to others, especially those in need and those on the peripheries
