Welcome

to the Office of Christian Formation

Our mission

The Formation Offices of the Diocese of St. Augustine exist to assist the local churches to participate more fully in the teaching mission of Christ and to aid the Bishop in his own task as shepherd and chief catechist of the local Church.

​

The Formation Offices have been established:

• to proclaim the Gospel

• to communicate the teaching of the Church

• to form people in whom the Word of God has taken root

• to provide programs and services which foster a living, conscious, informed and active faith

What each office does

The Office of Christian Formation is responsible for parish based religious education/catechetical programs for all age levels. The office provides assistance to parishes in the areas of: Religious Education, RCIA, Adult Faith Formation, Evangelization and Sacramental Preparation.​

​

The Ministry Formation Office provides a three year comprehensive program of study for lay ecclesial leaders. This program, accredited by the USCCB, assists parishes and diocesan agencies by offering quality formation and practical experience to their leaders.
