laypeople the opportunity to take college-level courses on a range of topics, including Sacred Scripture, Trinity, Christology, and moral theology, without the financial or time commitments required for formal undergraduate study.

Students who complete a ten-course curriculum designed by our diocesan Lay Ecclesial Ministry Office earn a certificate in theological studies, fulfilling the academic requirements of the LEM formation program.
