PROVIDENCE — The Certificate in Catholic Theology program successfully concluded another year of formation, culminating in a celebration for more than 40 participants who completed the program’s rigorous requirements.
On Saturday, Sept. 12, Bishop Bruce A. Lewandowski, C.Ss.R., presented participants with their Certificates in Catholic Theology and expressed his vision for the future of adult education within the local Church. He emphasizing the importance of expanding formational opportunities so more Catholic adults can deepen their understanding of the faith.
While historic pastoral efforts have focused primarily on youth and children’s religious education, official Church documents and current regional needs highlight an urgent call to prioritize adult evangelization and ongoing faith formation. Programs like the Certificate in Catholic Theology provide a foundational pathway for parishes and the diocese to fulfill this vision.
The Certificate in Catholic Theology offers ongoing adult education for individuals seeking to grow in knowledge and practice of the Catholic faith. Information regarding upcoming course dates and registration for the next cohort is available at www.evangelizeri.org/certificate.
