FREE Community Chat: The Catechumenate And Your Congregation…How to Get Started!
If your congregation is anything like most others in my experience, a lot of the seats during worship are filled with elderly tushies and others baptized as babies who – of course – have no memory of that big event. Others are wandering into our midst, looking for “something” but maybe are not even sure just exactly what they are looking for.
You know that the catechumenate is crucial in the life of the Church and you know this will need the participation of many current parishioners. But how do you go about establishing a well-received, effective catechumenate involving all – or most – of your congregation when they haven’t experienced this for themselves? Where do you start? What do you teach?
Please join us online on TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 7:30pm CT as we dive into these questions and more with experienced practitioners ready to share their knowledge and skills with you. Among others, The Rev. Elizabeth Ekdale of St. Mark’s ELCA in San Francisco brings 23 years of pastoring in that parish with her as she shares her experiences.
