Evangelization & Catechesis

The Office for Evangelization and Catechesis supports and implements the mandate of the Episcopal Commission for Evangelization and Catechesis.

Priority is given to the identification and development of resources in the areas of catechesis for adults, children, and youth within parishes and families. The office seeks to support the formation of those involved in catechetical leadership by researching and communicating trends and innovative strategies in evangelization and catechesis.

The Office of Evangelization and Catechesis of the Archdiocese of St. John’s supports catechetical ministry in playing an essential role in the evangelizing mission of the Church.

The office serves parish leaders by providing formation, direction, support, skill development and resources that promote effective catechesis that spans the whole spectrum of life.
