FAQs

Why is this training necessary?

Many of us know what a sponsor does, but maybe there is more a sponsor could do.

• What if every sponsor had specific tasks for training their catechumens or candidates?
• What if that training focused on the areas of Christian worship, Catholic teaching, parish community life, and discipleship in the world?
• How would that change the RCIA conversion process in your parish?

Take a step toward a more powerful process.

What will be covered in the training?

Join us for TeamRCIA’s next online training session in which we will first dive into why it’s so important to involve sponsors more deeply.

We will then look at how sponsors are called, what their relationship is to the catechumen and to the parish, and what they do during the period of Purification and Enlightenment.

And we will show you how to sponsors will make your job easier in word and tradition, community life, in prayer and worship, and by living an apostolic lifestyle

“Thanks Nick and Diana for the webinar! It was jam packed with information and guidance. I appreciate the way you unpack things into clear, easy segments.”
