TRS 655B Faith Formation in the Parish
All members of the Christian community are to grow in the gift of faith they received from God. Their pastoral leaders are to offer them opportunities to grow and mature in their faith. This course examines the possibilities across the age spectrum that a parish may offer, their planning, design, and implementation, the distinction and complementarity between catechesis and religious education and between pedagogy and andragogy. This course also addresses some challenges, such as intergenerational outreach and multicultural catechesis.
