In preparation for baptism we have designed a basic catechesis, which seeks to give new believers a basic foundation in the elementary teachings and practices of the church. A version is available upon request, but we would seek to emphasize that catechesis is not an independent study class, but an embodied, transformational journey to be undertaken in community, under the oversight of church elders and under the tutelage of mature Christians who are able to teach, to model, and to pass on the faith.
