Welcome to NCCL!

After a year of transition, with a commitment to continuing the good work begun almost 100 years ago, we are pleased to announce the renewal of NCCL - the National Community of Catechetical Leaders.
 
For decades, catechists have joined together in prayer to support one another in proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus in the U.S. Now more than ever, the Spirit calls us together as a community of catechetical leaders to creatively address the new challenges and opportunities facing the ministries of evangelization and catechesis in today's world. 
 
The mission of the National Community of Catechetical Leaders is to promote the ministries of evangelization and catechesis in the U.S. Catholic Church by fostering a community of leaders who proclaim and teach the Word of Jesus Christ through the witness of accompaniment, education, and formation in the Catholic faith.
 
As a member of the NCCL, you will have access to services, resources, and events to support you in your catechetical ministry today. 

• A weekly menu of feature Articles, news and updates, trends and research reports, and catechetical innovations
• A monthly free Webinar on catechetical ministry today
• A Vision section focusing on the Directory for Catechesis with video presentations, articles, and tools to bring the Directory alive in your setting
• Reports on effective Practices in faith formation with all ages
• Reports of Research and Trends in religion, faith, and Catholicism and the impact they have on evangelization and catechesis
• A Library where you will find videos from past conferences and events, issues of Catechetical Leader magazine, and more
• An Events page to keep you updated on conferences, workshops, and gatherings

 
We invite you to become part of this mission by becoming a member of this community that shares the same joys and challenges you face. Because we want everyone to get the support they need, there are no membership fees! Just sign up to be on the mailing list by clicking the button below and completing a short form. 
 
We also invite you to help shape the future of NCCL by sharing your ideas. Please take a few minutes to complete the NCCL 2022 Survey by going to https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NCCL2022.
