Directors of Religious Education to take a closer look at catechetical opportunities

At 10 a.m. Friday, June 1, Directors of Religious Education (DREs) throughout the diocese will have an opportunity to hear more about the catechetical opportunities for the upcoming 2007-2008 year at the DRE Day gathering at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe in the St. Augustine room. The day will begin at 10 a.m. and conclude at 3 p.m. Lunch will be provided.

All DREs will receive a bright yellow 3-ring binder containing adult and youth religious education and catechetical endeavors for the upcoming year.

Marlene Miller, Parish Life Coordinator, St. Stanislaus, Ingalls had this to say about last year’s DRE Day: “I really enjoyed the DRE day! I received much information and loved the great notebook to take home. It will be a great reference. Thank you for everything.”

The day will include information on Safe Environment, Pastoral Ministry Formation Program, Seasons of Faith, Catechist Formation, Youth Initiatives, Diocesan Confirmation Study Group, Called and Gifted, Vocations, Whole Parish Catechesis and the diocesan website.

For more information on the day or to R.S.V.P., contact Coleen Stein (620) 227-1538 or cstein@dcdiocese.org
