Caggiano, Frank J.
- Abstract
Bishop Frank J. Caggiano, Bishop of Bridgeport, and Chairman of the Subcommittee on the Catechism of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops discusses the newly formed Institute on the Catechism on the podcast Echoing Faith Today. In the dialogue with Dr. Jem Sullivan, podcast host, Bishop Caggiano reflects on current challenges and opportunities for catechetical ministry in the United States, with a particular focus on evangelizing catechesis. The conversation highlights the graced moment of the publication of the Directory for Catechesis and Pope Francis' Apostolic Letter issued Motu proprio, Antiquum Ministerium. From these catechetical documents, Bishop Caggiano highlights the call to invite and form the faithful through the lens of the encounter with Jesus Christ within the community of the Church. The Institute on the Catechism of the USCCB will offer unique formational opportunities in evangelizing catechesis as the Church in the United States seeks to realize the theological-pastoral principles contained in the Directory for Catechesis and Antiquum Ministerium. Echoing Faith Today, a podcast dedicated to themes in the Directory for Catechesis, is hosted by Dr. Jem Sullivan, associate professor in the School of Theology and Religious Studies at The Catholic University of America.
