Catechist’s Page
Welcome to our catechist page! On this page you will find great resources to assist you in sharing the Catholic faith with our youth. I have used all of these sites in one way or another and recommend you checking them out. I have broken the websites into categories to help you find just what you need, but with that said I am certain that no matter what age level you are working with you will find helpful hints and fun activities to use on all the sites. I have found that most activities can be adapted to meet the needs of any class I have taught. This is just a sampling of the many great websites. As the Faith Formation Season continues I plan on adding more sites and downloads for you to use. If you have a great “go to” site that is not on this list, I would love to hear about it and we can add it to the catechist page. If there is something else that would be helpful for you as a catechist, please let me know and if there is an online resource for it we will happily add it to the page. Please tell others about this new page – many of these sites have great parenting tips, as well as personal spiritual growth opportunities for anyone interested. I hope you find these resources helpful both in your role as a catechist and as Catholic who is continuing on their faith journey!
