Religious Education for Children


To ensure the best Catholic formation possible for our children, the Cathedral is teaming up with local parishes in the Fort Wayne area. We do not currently have religious education classes on site at the Cathedral.  However, we are bringing back Religious Education for the 2025/2026 school year with a new program from Augustine Institute.

We are currently seeking catechists for the new program. If you would like to volunteer as a catechist, click HERE to access the volunteer form. For more information on enrolling your child in Religious Education or volunteering as a catechist, please contact

Iván Miranda at (260) 424-1485 X314 or imiranda@cathedralfw.org

Safe Environment





The Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend requires that all clergy, seminarians, and employees complete the Safe Environment Training Program regardless of their level of contact with children. All diocesan volunteers who will have regular contact with children or young people must also complete the Safe Environment Training Program.
