ORE Regional Office: San Gabriel

The Office of Religious Education in the San Gabriel Pastoral Region works with pastoral ministers, parish catechetical leaders, catechists and volunteers who reside in the East LA, Pomona and San Gabriel Valley.  Our mission is to further support and resource their catechetical ministries.  Our area of service includes: regional congress, monthly gatherings, in-services and days of prayers with leaders in the parish; formal parish visits; and offering a variety of catechist formation centers and specializations throughout the year.

This is an annual, 1-day event, that offers attendees the opportunity to grow in their knowledge of the Catholic Faith, to deepen their spirituality, to increase their catechetical, liturgical, and leadership skills, and to be challenged by a variety of current topics and presenters. There is something for everyone!

Este evento anual de un día ofrece oportunidades a los participantes para crecer en su conocimiento de la fe católica, profundizar su espiritualidad, aumentar sus habilidades catequéticas, litúrgicas, y liderazgo, y para ser motivados por una variedad de temas y conferencistas. ¡Hay algo para todos!
