The Lay Pastoral Ministry Program
A program of Catholic Theology
and Ministerial Formation
The Lay Pastoral Ministry Program is one of the three
divisions of the Athenaeum of Ohio. Begun in 1975 as one of the first lay
ministry programs in the country, the LPMP is open to women and men of
faith who want to grow as lay ministers. The goal of the Lay Pastoral
Ministry Program is to provide participants with the experiences they need
-
to become more
effective ministers
-
to empower others to
minister
-
to minister with
creativity and adaptability to the evolving needs of a changing Church
and society.
In order to
accomplish these ends, the program provides participants with a solid
foundation in Catholic theology, as well as the opportunity to develop
ministerial skills under the supervision of experienced ministers.
Through the program, participants are helped to grapple with mature faith
questions and to develop a faith stance and a spirituality supportive of
their role as lay ministers.
