The St. Philip Institute of Catechesis and Evangelization will host several Diocesan Teaching events across the Diocese of Tyler in January and February. These events will focus on the themes of “How the Early Church was Catholic” and “Water to Wine: The Transformative Power of Catholic Matrimony.”

All are invited to join Bishop Strickland and the Institute staff. Each event will conclude with a holy hour and confession, followed by Mass with Bishop Strickland.

The upcoming 2018 Bishop’s Annual Appeal,“Make All Things New,” will support the St. Philip Institute and its new teaching ministries. These Diocesan teaching events will be an opportunity for all the faithful of the Diocese to grow in the treasure of our Catholic faith, meet the Institute staff, and learn more about the Institute’s new teaching initiatives.
