The religious education office facilitates information, training, retreats, support, and fellowship, especially for those who teach in or administer parish religious education/PRE programs.
With their daily example of life, we affirm and believe parents have the most effective capacity to transmit the beauty of the Christian faith to their children. The Office of Religious Education will help and support our parents and catechists to grow in their faith.
Whether an experienced teacher and catechist of several years or a beginning teacher, catechesis promotes growth and development and provides a structure for recognizing such.
The Salina Diocese offers two ways for our Education Leaders and Catechists to continue learning more about their faith and earn certifications.
Catechetical Institute of Franciscan University.
We are excited to announce a partnership with the Franciscan University of Steubenville beginning this fall. This is an opportunity for everyone in the diocese. The diocese will cover the program’s cost so that everyone has an opportunity to grow in their faith, grow in skill and knowledge needed to help others, and even earn certifications. The program is at home, at your own pace, and has guidance/mentorship available. I am excited about what this could bring to our diocese.
There will be opportunities for you to earn three different levels of certification. Basic level Certification Advanced level Certification Master-level certification.
