On Monday evening, I’ll be meeting with my DRE to talk about my role as a catechist for next year. I think it is a good practice for a DRE to have “interviews” with catechists each year. It is important for me, as a catechist, to know firsthand from the DRE what the vision of the program is and how God is calling me through the DRE’s leadership to serve that mission. It also gives me a chance to get some feedback from the DRE and to articulate any concerns or questions that I may have. Finally, it gives me an opportunity to know specifically what my role will be, what level I am teaching, and what materials I will be using. I look forward to this meeting and I’ll let you know what I learn from it on Tuesday morning.
