P l e a s e P r a y SO MANY REASONS TO

BE GRATEFUL: The parish family of Saint Angela Merici is very fortunate to have a

dedicated group of catechists: Timi, Leslee, Mary, Anne, Nanci,

Kelly, Betsy, and Robert are amazingly talented. They bring an

immense amount of dedication to the work they do to make the

Catholic Faith relevant to our youth.

We can sure always use additional Catechists!

Have you ever considered the vocation of being a

Catechist Teacher?

Here’s what you need: A willingness to share your faith. The love of working with kids. A smile.

Here’s what you don’t need: A degree in theology. A teaching credential

Being a catechist is a commitment to make the difference in the life of a

student, in the life of the Church, and in your own life of faith.

We are always welcoming new catechists to help with our K-8 and/or Confirmation Classes.

Contact Jordan in the parish office.
