Education for Ministry
Every baptized person is called to ministry. The Education for Ministry (EfM) program provides people with the education to carry out that ministry. During the Service of Confirmation we ask God to "Renew in these your servants the covenant you made with them at Baptism. Send them forth in the power of the Spirit to perform the service you set before them." EfM offers an opportunity to discover how to respond to the call to Christian service.
The goal of the Education for Ministry (EfM) Program is to provide laypersons with a comprehensive theological education. EfM enables baptized Christians to relate their faith to their lives and ministries in the world.
There are thirteen EfM groups in the Diocese (seven in Louisville, two in Paducah, one in Bowling Green, one in Glasgow, one in Murray, and one in Owensboro).
