Catechesis & Youth Ministry Workshop

Are you a new director of religious education or youth minister? Are you someone who would like a refresher course on logistics on how to work with families in our parishes?

Join the Diocese of Tyler for a practical and informative workshop designed to equip catechetical and youth ministry leaders with the knowledge, resources, and connections they need to serve their parishes with confidence.



Meet Your Diocesan Speakers

The workshop will feature representatives from several areas of diocesan ministry:

Deanna Johnston – Director of Family Life

Ariseli Lara – Director of Ethics and Integrity

Rita Martinez – Director of Faith Formation

Sonia Escobedo – Youth Minister

Deacon Ruben Natera – Deaconate Program

Sr. Andrea, OP & Fr. Steven Chabarria – Vocations Office

Erin Mone – Young Adult Minister

Tribunal

Our speakers will share their knowledge and experience while helping participants discover the resources and support available through the Diocese of Tyler.



What Will You Learn?

Ministry can sometimes leave you wondering:

Who do I call when I need help? Where do I go for resources? What support is available from the diocese? How do I navigate the different situations that arise when working with children, youth, and families?

This workshop is designed to help answer those questions.

Participants will become familiar with the people and offices within the Diocese of Tyler who are available to provide guidance, support, and resources for parish ministry.

Whether you are new to your position or simply need a refresher, you will leave with a better understanding of what to do, who to contact, and where to turn when you need help.


You don't have to figure it all out alone. The Diocese of Tyler is here to support you!
