Mission
We at the Catechists Ministry strive to share our faith and love of Jesus to the children and young people in a way that they can understand, experience His love for them. We hope to impel the young ones towards developing and deepening their own relationship with Jesus Christ in their journey towards discipleship.
As witnesses of Jesus and stewards of the mystery to the young ones, we are called to living a prayerful life, persevering in growing our faith and spirituality so that we can serve with humility and charity.
