OFFICE OF EVANGELIZATION AND RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

“The educational mission of the Church as Mother and Teacher is to proclaim the path to salvation and to promote growth in Christ. The Church forms and educates her children through the liturgical life; she leads them into the depths of the Christian faith through catechesis, and nurtures them with the Word of God as well as Body and Blood of Christ.” - Christ Our Pascha 953

The Office of Evangelization and Religious Education serves the Eparchy by promoting in-depth understandings of the Church’s Call to Educate her children. The Office of Religious Education does this through a number of ways including overseeing and developing materials for people of all ages, while facilitating Online Religious Education. For specifics about Faith Formation programs please our specific areas of focus.
