    Go And Make Disciples: The Next Steps

    It has been thirty-six years since Pope Paul VI promulgated his Apostolic Exhortation, Evangelii Nuntiandi, and nineteen years since the National Conference of Catholic Bishops published Go and Make Disciples, and we have to ask ourselves, "What difference have these documents made for the Catholic Church in the United States?" Business as usual is not working!  The Holy Father has once again called the Church to a New Evangelization, beckoning us to renewed "missionary dynamism" which will forge new pathways to bring our post-modern world into a life-changing encounter with Jesus Christ and His Church.  This workshop will equip us with a new lens by which we can understand, teach and live the New Evangelization in our various complimentary ministries.

 

Leadership Institute

 

"I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do." John 13:15

Forming Leaders for the Church

The Diocesan Educational/Catechetical Leadership Institute was begun in 1997 as a 5-day orientation program for new or nearly new diocesan leaders. In 2010, the Leadership Institute became an online program which expanded in 2011 to include two tracks of recordings, each track with its own complement of webinars and question-and-answer (Q & A) sessions. Track I serves new diocesan educational or catechetical leaders. Track II serves the professional development needs of veteran diocesan administrators.

Starting in 2012, the online Leadership Institute is poised to expand again. It will also be offered free of charge to all interested individuals. It will continue to serve the needs of diocesan leaders. Many of the webinars and Q&A’s will also be of interest to parish catechetical leaders and catechists, Catholic school principals and teachers, and other individuals who provide faith formation to diverse age groups and settings.

The Leadership Institute is sponsored by the National Educational Association Departments of Chief Administrators of Catholic Education and Religious Education, the National Conference for Catechetical Leadership, and the Secretariats of Catholic Education and of Evangelization and Catechesis, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
