Your Faith - find out more

Have you ever been asked a question about your faith that you could not answer or wish that you knew more about?  On Friday 29th May at 7:00pm there is an opportunity to find out more about the Light of Truth Certificate in Catechesis hosted by the Dominican Sisters: a 2-year, part-time, distance learning certificate.  Principally developed for both new and experienced catechists, it aims to develop catechists' understanding of their mission in the Church and of the mysteries of faith which they transmit to others in a changing cultural context.  Go to https://shorturl.at/cVdLE for more information.
