Catechetical Sunday

Catechetical Sunday
Sunday, September 21st

All Catechists will receive a blessing at the Saturday 5pm Mass and the 7am, 9am, 11am, and 2pm Sunday Masses.

The word “catechesis” means “to echo.” Literally, we are to echo
the good news of Jesus Christ to the world. This is not a suggestion; it is a command of our Lord.

Some people are called and set apart in our communities as catechists, those formally trained and charged with passing on the Gospel to children and adults, inside and outside of our communities. On Catechetical Sunday, we acknowledge them and remind ourselves of the need for formation and growth in all of us. To be a catechist is a privileged calling, and today be sure to say “thank you” to one in your community.
