ministry as a permanent deacon. The Archdiocese of San Antonio works closely with each applicant, who, upon admittance, completes an aspirancy year followed by four years of formation and study. Courses are typically offered Monday and Wednesday evening to accommodate students\u2019 schedules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Diaconate Formation Program (DFP) is an integral formation process that focuses on the whole person covering four areas: the human, intellectual, pastoral, and spiritual dimensions of the candidates. The program also emphasizes intercultural competencies and basic counseling skills essential for all pastoral ministers who are called to fulfill the evangelizing mission in a culturally diverse church and society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mexican American Catholic College partners with the diocese in the formation of future deacons, providing synchronous online courses in both English and Spanish at the regional level and in-person in the Archdiocese of San Antonio. Two options are available: a 3-year (36 credits) or a 5-year (54 credit) program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 5-year program course sequence appears below, and we also offer this <a href=\"https:\/\/maccsa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Deacon-Formation-Program-Regional-flier-amg-2024.pdf\">Regional Program Summary Flyer<\/a> for your review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th>Requirement<\/th><th>Credits<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Aspirancy (Year 1)<\/strong><\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>PHIL 1310 Philosophy in the Catholic Tradition<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 1320 Introduction to Theology and Biblical Studies<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Catechism of the Catholic Church (2)<\/td><td>1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Candidacy (Years 2-5)<\/strong><\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>PSTR 1350 Foundations of Evangelization and Catechesis<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 1341 Introduction to Liturgy<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 1380 Theology of the Creed: The Faith Professed<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 2320 Catholic Biblical Interpretation: Old Testament<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 2332 Catholic Biblical Interpretation: New Testament<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>PSTR 2351 History of the Catholic Church<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>PSTR 2352 Catechetical Content, Methods &amp; Curriculum<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 2382 Sacramental Theology: The Faith Celebrated<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>PSTR 3330 Canon Law for Ministry in Multicultural Communities<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 3381 Jesus Christ: God and Man<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 3385 Moral Theology: The Faith Lived<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 4320 Evangelization and the Writings of St. Paul<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 4385 Catholic Spiritual Traditions: The Faith Prayed<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>THEO 4387 Ecclesiology<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Elective (1)<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Practica (2): Homiletics &amp; Liturgy*<\/td><td>2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Total Requirement<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>54<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-tab kt-tab-inner-content kt-inner-tab-2 kt-inner-tab_2cc6e5-01\"><div class=\"kt-tab-inner-content-inner\"><style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading10286_6ba03d-04, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading10286_6ba03d-04[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading10286_6ba03d-04\"]{font-style:normal;color:#231f20;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading10286_6ba03d-04 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading10286_6ba03d-04[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading10286_6ba03d-04\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading10286_6ba03d-04 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading10286_6ba03d-04\">For students who are completing the 54-hour Certificate of Pastoral Ministry in Diaconal Studies, the following credit requirements apply:<br>Certificate \u2013 A minimum of 54 hours is required, including 6 hours of non-credit Practica.<br>Residence \u2013 Of the 54 hours of required courses, 30 must be completed at MACC.

The Certificate for Lay Ecclesial Ministry formation program is a threeyear systematic process that forms all who the Spirit moves to serve in ministry as Lay Ecclesial leaders in their local parishes.<sup>1<\/sup> The Church has used the term Lay Ecclesial Ministry to reflect vital elements of the specific lay vocation.<sup>2<\/sup> As it supports the Southwest region, MACC engages dioceses to partner with and offer this vital program collaboratively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The program includes a discernment process focusing on five formation areas (human, spiritual, intellectual, leadership, and pastoral). Human formation focuses on critical qualities to form wholesome relationships and a healthy, well-balanced personality; spiritual formation focuses on animating true hunger for holiness, promoting constant conversion fostering attitudes and disposition to the Spirit; adequate knowledge in theological and pastoral studies is the focus of the intellectual formation; leadership formation focuses on increasing competencies for ministers to lead groups and communities under Servant Leadership values; and pastoral formation cultivates the knowledge and attitudes\u2014and skills\u2014that directly pertain to effective functioning in a ministerial setting.<sup>3<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For three years, candidates undergo a process of discernment and formation better to serve the Lord in the Church&#8217;s pastoral ministry. Besides this being a formation process for service in the Church, it is also a preparation to assist participants in their faith journey. Upon completing the formation process, a final suitability determination is made regarding their competencies for service in the Ecclesial Ministry of the Church. Finally, the local Arch\/Bishop commissions them to minister in the Diocese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>View the Program Summary Flyer in your preferred language:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/maccsa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/CLEM-English-Brochure-Final_2024_AR.pdf\">Certificate for Lay Ecclesiastical Ministry (CLEM) &#8211; English<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/maccsa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/FMEL-Spanish-Brochure-Final_2024.pdf\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/maccsa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/FMEL-Spanish-Brochure-Final-1.pdf\">Formaci\u00f3n para el Ministerio Eclesial Laico (FMEL) &#8211; Espa\u00f1ol<\/a> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><sup>1<\/sup> Cf.

They meet with a participant once per semester to offer concrete feedback regarding their human development, spiritual growth, academic work, and pastoral progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Annual Evaluation<\/strong><br>Each year, the Diocesan Coordinator meets with the participant\u2019s formation advisor and pastor to assess the participant&#8217;s suitability and continuation in the formation program. A formal letter is sent to the candidate with a copy to the Director of the Regional Institute for Lay Ecclesial Ministry and Service at MACC. The director at MACC periodically communicates with the diocesan coordinator to ensure sufficient information is being shared during the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pastor Accompaniment<\/strong><br>It is uniquely the role of the pastor to select those who will serve on his pastoral team. All lay men and women involved in the Lay Ecclesial Ministry Formation Program must have the endorsement and support of their pastor and, of course, the bishop. Discernment for ministry is done with the community&#8217;s cooperation and with the pastor&#8217;s and direct supervisor&#8217;s support and prayers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Services of the Mexican American Catholic College<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Faculty<\/strong><br>Besides teaching courses in theology, pastoral ministry, and leadership, faculty members maintain contact with the students and offer advice regarding academic progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Intellectual Formation that Facilitates Integration<br><\/strong>Theological formation goes hand in hand with spiritual, human, leadership, and pastoral praxis. Undergraduate-level coursework is required for the core curriculum. The Certificate for Lay Ecclesial Ministry Program Director evaluates any prior undergraduate or graduate coursework. Nevertheless, all participants are required to meet with an appointed local Formation advisor to set annual goals in all areas of their discernment processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cohorts<\/strong><br>As much as possible, participants are part of cohorts formed as a group and meet online twice each semester with the program director at MACC.

Lay Ecclesial Ministers are expected to minister alongside priests and deacons.
