Letter from the President
Over the past year FCH (Federation for Catechesis with Hispanics) has been busy reorganizing after many transitional moments. A wonderful group of leaders has come together to help us build a whole new FCH so we can continue to serve those of you who work in the (arch)diocesan and parish evangelization and catechetical ministry. For the latest news and upcoming events, I invite you to view the new FCH website (www.FCHcatechesis.org/our-team) and be introduced to your new officers.
This past year we, as a leadership board, gathered in August 2022 in Dallas, TX to create a three-year strategic plan. It was amazing to have such enthusiastic well-rounded leaders to rebuild this Federation anew. We look forward to offering many wonderful opportunities to help form and support you and the people in (arch)dioceses across the United States and beyond in ministering with Hispanics/Latinos. We are beginning this year with two webinars:
Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe-Estrella de la Nueva Evangelización
Nov. 15, 7pm CST

Adviento
Dec. 14, 7pm CST

I invite you to register and become part of our membership. There are NO membership fees for this first year. You will receive our bi-monthly newsletters and information about upcoming workshops, webinars, and other opportunities. In the future we will be hosting our own regional conferences. If you would like to financially contribute to our efforts just click on the DONATE button on our website. There is no amount too small.
Thank you for visiting our website and possibly registering to be a member. May Jesus Christ give us the strength, guidance, and energy to continue to help you serve His people – ALL His people! I look forward to what the good Lord and our Blessed Mother Mary have in store for all of us.
Paz,
Rita Martinez
FCH President
