Basic Formation For Catechetical Leadership


BFCL is a thirty-six hour program that provides active participation in sessions dealing with the personal and professional skill needed to coordinate a parish religious education program. There will be opportunities for prayer and reflection as well as time to network with other catechetical leaders. Heritage tables are prepared by each participant, which gives them an opportunity to get in touch with their own cultural roots. As they listen to the stories of the other participants their sensitivity to different cultures and customs is raised.
