In the beginning

Posted By Carlos on April 27, 2009

This being my introductory post, I thought I’d share what my hope is for this blog.  Here I will post about my journey as I share and pass down the Catholic faith to those entrusted to me.  As a Catechist, I have the ministry and therefore the responsibility to teach what the Church has to offer to the children of my parish and my diocese.

While sharing this journey with you, I hope to post my challenges and my successes, my good days and bad days.  I hope to post some of my ideas on running a Religious Education class as well as some of the topics that I cover in class.  Sometimes I will succeed and sometimes I will fail, but I will do it all with Christ as my guide.

Please come on this journey with me.

About the author

Carlos

My name is Carlos Torres, and for better or for worse, I am a Catechist. As a Catechist, I help supplement the religious education that parents give at home with focused and detailed lessons around Scripture and Tradition as taught by the Church. Now, I have no background in teaching, much less in dealing with a group of tweens and teens who don’t want to be with me, in a classroom, on a weeknight, learning about faith; yet week after week, I and many other Catechists do just that by letting the Holy Spirit guide us in planting those seeds and helping fulfill the Church’s mission to “go and make disciples”.
