Catechist & Leader Formation

- Training of parish leaders and catechists is vital to ensure that the faith is handed on in its integrity and in a manner that responds to the needs, learning styles, cultures and other special characteristics of those in each parish's care. Check out these options for your parish leaders:
- SJS Certificate in Evangelization Equipping Catholic leaders to be witnesses to Christ.
- Franciscan at Home Catechist Formation that ensures the faith is handed on in its integrity.
- Augustine Institute Certificate Short Courses to better live out your faith more fully!
- Revive Parish Designed to help parish leaders learn, grow, and renew their parishes.
note: Certificate Students continuing in Fall 2023

If you wish to purse a year two with the Augustine Institute, the classes we suggest are as follows: 1. Our Life in Christ (Morality) 2. The Church and Sacraments 3. Prayer and Spirituality 4. Martyrs and Monks (Church History) 5. Elective (choose one course from all that are offered)
