MEET THE CATECHIST.  Each week we will be providing a photo and biography from each of our catechists.  Please enjoy learning more about them.

This week's Catechist is Jayne Barber, who is our Catechist of the Good Shepherd and Kindergarten catechist.

Hello my name is Jayne Barber.  I have been the Lead Catechist for Catechesis of the Good Shepherd since 2018.   Immediately following CGS, I then teach the Kindergarten Faith Formation Class, which I have done for the past four years.  My husband and I converted to the Catholic Faith in 2016.  We have two grown children and a wonderful son-in-law.   Becoming Catholic has helped my faith grow to a deeper fullness of Christ that I never knew was possible.  I enjoy sharing the love of Jesus, our Good Shepherd, and our Catholic faith with the youngest children of our parish.  It’s going to be a great year!

Hi everyone, my name is Elizabeth and I am one of the catechists this year. This will be my second year teaching 1st grade for faith formation. I am currently a senior at Lake State majoring in Fire Science and Paramedic Technology. I am also a peer minister at the Newman Center. I love snowboarding and exploring the outdoors. I have been raised Catholic since I was a baby. I have grown to love the Catholic faith and passing it on to the younger generations. I can't wait to have a great year.
