"We
are entering a period of new vitality for the
Church, a period in which adult Catholic laity
will play a pivotal leadership role in fulfilling
the Christian mission of evangelization and
transforming society. For adults to
fulfill their roles in this new era of the
Church, their faith formation must be lifelong,
just as they must continue to learn to keep up
with the
changing world."
Our
Hearts Were Burning Within Us

Our
Mission...
| Greco
Institute is a center for adult education. As an
agency of the Diocese of Shreveport, Greco
Institute receives its mission from the bishop,
cooperates with all other agencies and
coordinates all diocesan level adult education.
Greco Institute provides a variety of programs
throughout the diocese that foster among the
Catholic faithful a comprehensive and integrated
understanding of their faith that relates to
their daily lives.
Greco
Institute also provides programs to develop the
knowledge and skills needed to effectively respond to
the needs of our church and of our society.
Greco
Institute receives its funding through
contributions to the annual Diocesan Services
Appeal. The institute does not charge a fee for
its courses. Participants do pay for books and
materials. |
