Religious Education Text Books in Conformity with  the Catechism:

The Office of Religious Education and Training assists the Bishop in supporting catechetical leadership, and  parish ministries for the Diocese of Alexandria. Working with pastors, parish, and school personnel, we endeavor to help develop and affirm catechists as well as offer resources in conformity with the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Opportunities for catechist formation are offered through the diocesan office and in some parishes.

Gabriel's Cry

Gabriel's Cry is a group of gifted musicians and singers from the Diocese of Alexandria who have been brought together over the past few years to share their ministry of music with others. Gabriel's Cry is comprised of college students and young adults, and is available for all types of events, including liturgies, rallies, and parish and diocesan events.

The Diocese of Alexandria is committed to providing youth with ample opportunities to deepen their relationship with Jesus Christ in ways such as gathering at rallies and coming together for retreats. We strive to provide our youth with resources to support them in their faith journey and we offer Youth Ministry Counseling to give youth a place to turn in times of need.
