The Diocese of Central Newfoundland Lay Minister Training Program

In the fall of 2026, we will begin a multi-layered study program for our Lay Persons. 

Step one will be for us to meet online each week.

Sessions start on Thursday, October 1

The program will have all the study and learning components needed for those training for Licensed Lay Ministry and Licensed Eucharistic Ministry. 

People in training for these ministries will also have mentoring and practical liturgical training from the clergy in these parishes.

As Well....

All of the resources will be an excellent place for all laity who want to deepen or refresh their understanding of the Church.

On the study program page of our website, you will have access to all sorts of Diocesan and Queen’s College resources and videos.
