CGS Formation Course for Catechists Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Montessori-based religious formation program for children, beginning at age 3. It seeks to create and facilitate a sacred "hands-on" space for the children, called an atrium, in which both the children and their catechists can hear, ponder and celebrate the most essential mysteries of the Catholic faith as revealed in the Scriptures and the Liturgy. The Church of St. Peter is excited to host a Level 1a catechist formation course this summer, July 27-Aug 1. Training will take place from 9am-4:30pm Monday-Friday, and 9am-1pm on Saturday. This course will ground the participants in the theory and practical application of CGS while also preparing them to develop and facilitate an atrium for 3-6 year old children.
