This program is designed for Church leaders, employees, and catechists who seek comprehensive certification in Catholic teachings and theology, along with practical skills to effectively teach these principles. Participants will articulate the fundamental doctrines of faith and morals of the Catholic Church, drawing from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Sacred Scripture, and Sacred Tradition. The program explores the Bible as a unified story, showing how the New Testament is anticipated by the Old and fulfilled in the New. It also delves into the nature, mission, and purpose of catechesis, with a particular focus on biblical catechesis, doctrinal lesson planning, and the methods and principles endorsed by the Church.
This knowledge offers a framework for addressing social issues through a moral lens, encouraging thoughtful engagement with human rights, economic equity, and environmental stewardship. Delving into these principles enhances your academic experience and develops skills to contribute meaningfully to society.
