The meeting took place at the Umfolozi Club on Saturday, March 6 . 2010 There were 44 people present, including the Bishop. There were coordinators, priests and Sisters. The meeting started by a reading of the Word of God from Matt 28,16 - 20., followed by a period of silence and reflection.
The group was asked what their expectations were and what they hoped to get from the meeting. Here are some of the expectations: to be revived in faith; to be revived in spirit; that there be a spirit of cooperation among all involved in catechetics. We looked at the way that catectetics were taught in the various parishes.
Some serious questions were asked, like the following:
1. who should teach catechism in our parishes.
2. Which books are we using presently and which ones should we use.
3. what brings joy in teaching catechism.
4. what are the challenges in the teaching of catechism.
