PATHWAYS is designed for everyone, from someone who is just exploring the Church to the person who has been Catholic for decades. Our presenters attempt to make complex teachings of the Church easy to understand, applicable to daily life, and able to be shared with family and friends. Each session is conducted in a comfortable informal setting with others from your local community designed to allow your questions to be explored and answered.

About Pathways
Adult Catholic laity are called to fulfill a critical role in an ever-changing world where they bear the primary responsibility for evangelization. Pathways represents the Diocese of Greensburg’s long-standing commitment to adult faith formation and nurturing mature discipleship. To this end, Pathways participants are invited to explore what it means to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ in our own historical time and place; to know the faith, to make it our own, and to share it with others.
Pathways is underwritten in part by The Anselm Fund.
Certificate of Completion
The Pathways Certificate of Completion is awarded to a participant who has attended 75% of the 22 evening sessions and the two workshops. From the year of registration, participants have four years to complete the program without any additional cost. Certificates of Completion are awarded at a special Mass with Bishop Kulick at Christ, Our Shepherd Center. Attendance at 100% of the Pathways sessions completes standard certification for diocesan catechists.
