What sort of curriculum will be used by the Catechetical Institute?
The heart of the curriculum is based on the four pillars of the Catechism of the Catholic Church: The profession of faith, the sacraments, life in Christ and prayer. This two-year class is comprised of four modules of 11 classes each, with an extended break over Christmas and January, and no classes in the summer months. Students will also have two formative sessions during each module for personal application of the key themes of the faith curriculum.
After completing all four modules of the Institute curriculum, a certificate of completion will be granted in the name of the Archbishop of St. Paul and Minneapolis.
