Training of Catechists in Bukundi, Tanzania

Region:

Tanzania

Missioner Responsible:

Fr. Ed Schoellmann, M.M.

There is increased need of involvement of the lay people in evangelization. Catechists have proved to be very useful and able to evangelize. However, there is need for them to acquire formal training on how to catechize effectively. Fr. Ed Schoellmann plans to provide the training necessary to provide a solid foundation of knowledge of the faith they teach. Your gift will enable the growth and response of the Catechist himself by the spirituality exhibited by the community he serves.

“One who is being instructed in the word should share all good things with his instructor.”

– Galatians 6:6
