About the National Gathering on Christian Initiation™
The National Gathering on Christian Initiation™ invites parish leaders, initiation ministers, and regional or diocesan trainers to come together to explore the theoretical and practical aspects of initiation ministry. In addition to interactive and engaging sessions led by the NGCI team members, participants will learn from each other and share best practices through group discussion and hands-on training sessions.
NGCI offers two tracks. Parish and Diocesan Leadersand Initiation Catechists, offered in English and Spanish, will gain practical skills, discuss common challenges, and share best practices to enrich their work. An optional pre-gathering forum will be available on July 1, 2020 and will explore “Catechesis of the Good Shepherd: Insights for RCIA Adapted for Chil-dren.” This forum is free for participants but has a limited number of seats—register today!
The 2020 gathering will take place at the Loyola University Chicago Lake Shore Campus, located in the Rogers Park neighborhood, seven miles north of downtown and within steps of public transportation.
2020 Theme: The RCIA Adapted for Children
Children of varying ages and a wide range of faith development come to us seeking Christian initiation. How do we minister to these children and their families? What is the best way to offer each child appropriate catechesis and formation in Christian life? How do we receive children who have been baptized in other Christian traditions into the full communion of the Catholic Church? Join us at the 2020 National Gathering on Christian Initiation™ to find the answers to these and many other questions and to discover parish-tested practices for dealing with diverse pastoral situations.

Rebekah Rojcewicz shares with the formation leaders who will participate in the Level I Study Group, “The call of our role as CGS Formation Leaders is to understand the reality that our work is not set in stone, it was given freely, and the call in passing along the gift of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd as formation leaders and catechists is to be progressively more essential.”
Please pray for all of our CGSUSA Formation Leaders!
