Catechetical Sunday 2010
This year, Catechetical Sunday, September 19, 2010, will focus on the theme, “Matrimony: Sacrament of Enduring Love.” Those who have been designated by the community to serve as catechists will be called forth to be commissioned for their ministry. Catechetical Sunday is a wonderful opportunity to reflect upon the role that each person plays, by virtue of Baptism, in handing on the faith and being a witness to the Gospel. Catechetical Sunday is an opportunity for all to rededicate themselves to this mission as a community of faith. There will be commissioning of all catechists (in Faith Formation, Youth Ministry, Scripture Study, RCIA, etc.) at all Masses Sept. 18 and 19. Thank you for your gift of stewardship!
