Faith Formation: Something to Celebrate

On August 27, 50-plus Parish Catechetical Leaders, along with the Faith Formation Cluster of the Office of Lifelong Formation & Education, gathered to share information, find support with one another and welcome the following new PCL’s through ritual and prayer:

Pat Kessinger – St. Rita

Sam Thomeczek – Cathedral of the Assumption

Agnes Kovacs – St. Patrick

J.J. Singer – Immaculate Conception, LaGrange

Marie Seaman, SFCC – St. Joseph, Bardstown

Darlene Fowler – St. Francis Xavier, Mount Washington

That following Saturday an additional 50-plus catechists gathered for our first “conference style” Saturday morning catechist formation. Here is what they had to say: “Continue Saturday mornings, this was great!”; “ I learned that I am not alone in my journey”; “ I wish I would have started this process years ago”.

Let us not forget all the fine efforts of all those involved in catechetical ministry at parishes and schools within the Archdiocese of Louisville. Yes, Faith Formation is truly something to celebrate!

Join us as we publicly acknowledge these efforts with Archbishop Kurtz at the Cathedral on the 22nd of September at 7PM. Email Linda at ALMI@archlou.org to register today and come ready to celebrate!
