The Pastoral Institute is committed to making adult education a high priority in the Diocese of Victoria by providing a solid curriculum of basic courses pertaining to the Catholic faith.
Understanding and living the Catholic Faith is a life-long commitment. Each person is called to grow continually and to respond openly to Christ in his/her life.
"Adult faith formation, by which people consciously grow in the life of Christ through experience, reflection, prayer and study, must be the central task in [this] catechetical enterprise..."- Our Hearts Were Burning 5, USCCB
