Catechism is a summary or exposition of catholic doctrine
Catechesis is the process of imparting faith.
The catechist is one who guards the memory of God and who knows how to awaken it in others, said Pope Francis
Faith formation is catechesis (teaching the faith) which aims deepen people's contact with Jesus Christ via educational and enrichment opportunities. Designed to touch the intellect as well as the heart, these programs help people live and experience a more Christ-centered life. Catechesis is also the act of handing on the Word of God intended to inform the faith community and candidates for initiation into the Church about the teachings of Christ, transmitted by the Apostles to the Church.It involves the lifelong effort of forming people into witnesses to Christ and opening their hearts to the spiritual transformation given by the Holy Spirit. The ministry of Faith Formation, the most important ministry in the Diocese of Quilon, provides effective ways (programs) of catechesis for people of all ages and backgrounds. The ministry dedicates more on the faith life formation of children through Sunday Catechesis. In the Diocese of Quilon we have had many far-sighted Catechetical team works and classes coupled with the Bible Apostolate in view of our youth as part of the youth programs and education, high-lighting and extending the catechetical related activities, programming the streamline procedures for the better functioning of the catechetical needs and processes. Now we are looking forward to seeking out for taking up the challenges of some fresh and better programmers and activities. The Diocesan Ministry of Faith Formation launches this web portal, in God's will, in order to accelerate the activities already in full swing in propagating Catholic faith through various ministries of Faith Formation and mainly through the system of Sunday catechism in 105 centers,27500 students,2000 teachers of the Diocese.
Dear Friends in Jesus Christ,
Let us work together for the Kingdom of God by catechising the children and the faithful.
With Love and Prayers
