Auxiliary Bishop Pierre Nguyen Van Kham (pic) told UCA News 1,700 laypeople attend evening courses during the week at the archdiocesan Pastoral Center.
Another 650 catechists, parish council members and marriage counselors attend weekend sessions, and 220 Religious women attend theological and scriptural classes at the center, Bishop Kham said.
“The center has an active role in giving formation to lay leaders from local parishes, Catholic associations and groups, because there are no Catholic schools in our country,” the archdiocese’s auxiliary bishop pointed out. He heads the Episcopal Commission for Christian Education of the Vietnam Bishops’ Conference.
