This is a practical unit in a supervised ministry context. This unit focuses on developing skills in teaching the Catholic faith in a variety of ministry situations including programs supporting the New Evangelisation, sacramental preparation programs in parishes, adult education programs and Religious Education classes. Students will observe and reflect on the content and practice of such education programs in a variety of ministry situations, including parishes, and then develop and enact a plan to teach children, young people or adults in areas of Catholic faith and practice. The students will have the opportunity to work co-operatively with those already engaged in such faith ministry practice and with leaders in parish education programs.
