Forming those who form others

Bishop David L. Ricken was installed as the twelfth bishop of the Diocese of Green Bay on Aug. 28, 2008, at St. Francis Xavier Cathedral. During his tenure as bishop in Green Bay, Bishop Ricken officially approved the Marian apparitions that took place at the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help in Champion on October 1859 when the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared on three occasions to Adele Brise, a young Belgian immigrant. In addition to his duties as bishop in Green Bay, Bishop Ricken also served as Chairman of the USCCB’s Committee on Evangelization and Catechesis.

About Franciscan Catechetics

The Catechetics Degree Programs and the Catechetical Institute (CI) at Franciscan University of Steubenville work in concert to prepare clergy, religious and laity to join the “army of catechists” called for by St. John Paul II, eager to help the Church in her mission of making all nations joyful disciples of Jesus Christ. We combine a thorough formation in Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and Magisterial documents with training in effective pedagogical techniques to help those we serve to grasp the truth, goodness, and beauty of the Father’s plan, and to bear witness to others faithfully of the wonderful life of grace in the Holy Spirit.
