I share below an extract from my address to catechists at the South and Central Catechetical Rally last Sunday (Sept 25) on the theme: Catechists: Forming God’s Caribbean People – A reflection on Revitalising Catholic Culture and Identity.
The Archdiocese owes each catechist a debt of gratitude for your dedication to the important work in which you are engaged. We thank you for your evangelising spirit; for saying “Yes”. “Among the laity who become evangelisers, catechists have a place of honour.” (Pope John Paul II, Redemptoris Missio).
