LIM to host National Catholic Educational Association visit this summer

The Institute for Ministry (LIM) will host a distinguished study group on Loyola's campus in late July. The group is the National Catholic Education Foundation (NCEF) Catechetical Scholars (about 15 diocesan directors of religious education from various Catholic dioceses throughout the United States).

NCEF funds its Catechetical Scholars project with private grant funds. Members of the LIM faculty and staff and a host of other nationally-recognized ministry experts will provide presentations and study sessions for the visiting scholars.

Robert Colbert, director of the Religious Education Department of the NCEA, will be the official NCEA representative coordinating the event. The dates are July 24 - 31, 2000.
