This ministry involves a share in the work of the Lord’s Spirit calling us to recognize and pass on the workings of God in the lives of all people. It is a task of guarding and passing on intact the rich deposit of our Catholic Faith to the next generation and to all who search for a deeper faith. Virtus training required.
