This year, the Archdiocese of Detroit is celebrating Catechetical Sunday on September 19, 2021, with the theme “Disciples of Jesus: Witnesses of the Gospel.” On this special day we celebrate our catechists’ response to the Lord’s invitation to develop their own relationship with Jesus. Catechists teach us to recognize Jesus’ voice and invitation in our own lives so that we will grow as His disciples and witness his love and mercy in our world. We also celebrate our parents, grandparents, and guardians by recognizing their important role in teaching the faith. The parish community is encouraged to pray for all catechists who dedicate themselves to the mission of helping those they teach to hear the voice of Jesus and to grow in relationship with Him.

Prayer for Catechists
Lord, as our catechists respond to your call to serve you, we pray that you open their eyes, ears, mind, and heart to see you and to hear your voice so that they may be instruments of your love, mercy, and truth to those they teach. Use them, Lord, to help them experience a personal encounter with your Son, Jesus, so that they will become joyful witnesses of the Gospel in their daily lives, at work and at school, and in their families. Come, Holy Spirit, fill them with your gifts so that they may confidently serve those you send them this year. Amen.
