About the Program
In coordination with dioceses across the country, the Neuhoff Institute for Ministry & Evangelization has been providing the intellectual component of diaconate formation, in both English and Spanish, for almost twenty years. With recent partnerships including the dioceses of Dallas, Fort Worth, Tyler, and Shreveport, Neuhoff has a long-standing reputation for providing intellectually rigorous and faithfully Catholic diaconate formation.
Program Format
The academic class schedule follows the guidelines for pastoral diaconate formation laid out by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) in its National Directory for the Formation, Ministry, and Life of Permanent Deacons in the United States of America. The intellectual formation is supplemented by spiritual formation provided by each of the dioceses that we serve and is supported by the Neuhoff Institute where needed.
