“Cultivating Catechists Capable of Cultivating a Living Faith”
Joe Paprocki
October 7, 2021
1:30 PM

Catechists play a critical role in forming people of all ages in the Catholic faith. In order to do this effectively, we must ensure that our catechists are well-formed and equipped with the skills and strategies needed to touch the hearts and minds of those they teach. In this engaging and interactive session, Joe Paprocki, DMin, will identify strategies for cultivating catechists who, in turn, are capable of cultivating a living faith in those they serve.

Joe Paprocki, DMin, the National Consultant for Faith Formation for Loyola Press, has been in pastoral ministry for over 40 years, has authored over 20 books (including his most recent, Preparing Hearts and Minds: 9 Simple Ways for Catechists to Cultivate a Living Faith), and presented in over 150 dioceses in North America. Joe received his Masters Degree from the Institute of Pastoral Studies (Loyola University of Chicago) and his Doctor of Ministry Degree from the University of St. Mary of the Lake (Mundelein Seminary). Joe blogs about his catechetical experiences and insights at www.catechistsjourney.com.
