The Virtual Learning Community for Faith Formation

VLCFF @ UD: "The Virtual Learning Community for Faith Formation (VLCFF) is a growing initiative to offer adult religious education and faith formation anytime and anywhere via the internet. The goal is to support the church's professional ministry of religious education and faith formation in cyberspace.

The VLCFF is coordinated and sponsored by the Institute for Pastoral Initiatives (IPI) at the University of Dayton - a Catholic Marianist Institution.

Our mission is to mobilize the resources of the University of Dayton for partnerships with the Church that create and implement innovative pastoral initiatives designed to meet the needs of the Church and to articulate faith within the context of contemporary culture."

If you are looking for a new way to provide formation for the catechists of your diocese I suggest that you look at the University of Dayton's VLCFF program. I'm convinced that VLCFF is one of the most valuable resources for faith formation available today. As a VLCFF partner diocese, VLCFF enables us to provide a richer variety of formation opportunities across the great distances of Western Nebraska.
