About this Event
National Diocesan Director Orientation
Join us for the National Diocesan Director Orientation for new marriage and family life ministry directors (NDDO). NDDO is an orientation held every two years for diocesan marriage and family life directors who have been in their positions for five years or less. It is co-hosted by the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (Secretariat for Laity, Marriage, Family Life and Youth) and the Catholic Family Life Association.
Network with colleagues and learn more about topics such as:
- the four pillars of the national pastoral framework, Called to the Joy of Love
- marriage preparation based on the new catechumenate model
- outreach and engagement with clergy and parishes
- collaboration within diocesan structures and more…
A schedule of events will be provided closer to the event date. We look forward to welcoming you to NDDO!
There is no fee for the event. Light breakfast and lunch are included. Travel and accommodations are the responsibility of the attendee. Directors from mission dioceses are encouraged to inquire about financial assistance for travel. For more information, contact Julia Dezelski at [email protected].
