More than 600 elementary and high school teachers from across the Diocese of Camden gathered Oct. 19 for a Diocesan Teacher Formation Day at Camden Catholic High School, Cherry Hill. Diocesan superintendent of Catholic schools, Dr. Bill Watson, began the day with a reflection on intentional discipleship. He also led the group through Lectio Divina, giving the teachers an opportunity to grow together in their shared mission as Catholic educators. The teachers then gathered in small groups to discuss how they bring Christ’s love into their own lives and classrooms. The day concluded with Mass celebrated by Bishop Joseph A. Williams. During his homily, Bishop Williams asked the teachers, “What does it mean to have faith in the school setting? … It means a friendship with Jesus Christ.” Msgr. Andrew Martin, Camden Catholic president emeritus, concelebrated the Mass along with the directors of Catholic Identity from three diocesan high schools: Father Carlo Santa Teresa, Camden Catholic; Father Peter Gallagher, Gloucester Catholic; and Father Philip Ramos, AM, Paul VI.
