Confirmation Preparation Volunteers

Confirmation Preparation Volunteers work with youth in grade 8 on Sundays, 10:10-11:25 am in the St. André House, to educate youth in the Catholic faith and prepare them to receive the sacrament of Confirmation. Both catechists and aides are needed to meet the Diocesan Safe Environment requirement of at least two screened and trained adults in every classroom. No teaching experience required. All volunteers must be compliant with all Diocesan Safe Environment requirements. 

Catechists

Dedicated volunteer catechists are needed to provide children with a structured learning environment and serve as a resource for the children’s many inquiries into the Christian faith. Each catechist is tasked with leading the children into a closer personal relationship with Jesus while also instructing the children in the tenets of the Catholic Faith. The main sources at the catechists’ disposal are the Bible, the classroom textbooks, storybooks, devotionals, craft supplies, and multimedia resources. The combination of these resources paired with a dedicated and capable catechist will help create an environment of learning and authentic Christian discipleship. Requirements for catechists include a meeting with the Director of Faith Formation, reference check, CBI background check and Safe Environment Training. 

Please consider sharing in the faith formation of our children. If you would be interested in becoming a catechist or classroom assistant, contact Cathy Kusman-Kelly, Faith Formation Director, at 719-633-8711 x105 or email formationdirector@sacredheartcos.org.
