Catechesis is sharing the teachings of Jesus Christ in such a way that a person comes to: know about God, believe in him and his teachings, enter into a relationship with God and be transformed by him. Catechesis promotes knowing and living the Catholic faith.While all Catholics participate in the Church’s catechetical mission, the Archbishop has primary responsibility for catechesis in the Archdiocese. The Office for Catechetical Formation assists the Archbishop in this most sacred and time honored task of faith formation.

Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, the Office for Catechetical Formation supports the catechetical initiatives of Archdiocesan Catholic Schools, Parish Religious Education Programs, Youth and Young Adult Ministry and Catholic Campus Ministry. To ensure that the beauty and the truth of the Catholic faith is presented with fidelity, the Office promotes the ongoing faith formation of Administrators, Teachers, Catechists, Youth and Young Adult Leaders, Newman Chaplains and Catholic Campus Ministers.
