The Office of Religious Education and Faith Formation works with all diocesan and parish ministries to further the diocesan mission of religious education and evangelization, specifically working closely and collaboratively with Pastoral Leadership, Office of Divine Worship, and all other diocesan programs associated with the development of faith formation. Through analyzing the catechetical needs of the Diocese, the office develops policies and procedures to assist parishes/Directors of Religious Education (DREs) with guidelines, evaluation, resources, and training to support in the shared ministry of evangelizing, catechizing, and educating to form life-long Disciples who will witness the love of God.
These are links to some religious education curricula currently being used by parishes in the diocese. Choose the one that’s right for your parish.
