Some of the courses offered on behalf of the Education Service focus on formation for those involved in a specific ministry in parish life – parish pastoral councils or catechists, others are open to all members of the parish community. Through these courses we aim to support the ongoing growth in faith of all members of our Catholic community throughout the diocese. The costs shown are based on £50 per evening session to cover the travelling and handouts provided. Some courses are available as a Study Day or as a weekend course - £75 for a half-day; £150 for a full day.
For the year 2008 – 2009, the range of courses available to parishes, deaneries and schools from the Adult Formation team is as follows:
