Bridgeport Roman Catholic Diocesan Corporation

First Witnesses

Housed at the Institute for Catholic Formation, the First Witnesses program will invite 20 parishes to walk alongside newly married couples and parents of younger and older children to help them articulate their own faith and to practice faith-centered activities in their homes. Participating parishes will receive training, mentoring from knowledgeable leaders, mini-grants, and resource tool kits and, in turn, will help the diocese produce resources for parents, including a podcast, online Bible quizzes, text message campaigns and videos. The resources will be shared throughout the diocese.
