Education for Parish Service

Our Mission    

  

Established in 1978, in the wake of the Second Vatican Council, Education for Parish Service (EPS) provides adult lay Catholics with a theological, scriptural and pastoral education grounded in the firm foundation of Church teaching. EPS is a Scripture, theology and spiritual development programme for adult Catholics that enables them to understand their faith so they can live it and share it in their homes, parishes, and communities.  EPS training has enabled Catholics to serve or take leadership roles in various parish ministries. Many are spreading the faith as catechists, RCIA team members, extraordinary ministers of the Eucharist, or in other areas such as chaplaincy, justice and peace.
