• Catechist
  • The catechist is a lay person specially appointed by the Church, in accordance with local needs, to make Christ known, loved and followed by those who do not yet know Him and by the faithful themselves. At Holy Name this includes educating children, young people, teens and adults in the faith, preparing candidates and their families for the sacraments of Christian initiation, and helping with retreats and other meetings connected with catechesis. Currently the "Echoes of Faith" video series is the training chosen by our diocese. At the High School level, Core Team members attend training sessions and retreats, along with conferences and workshops as available.
