"For years there was a growing request for our catechist formation program to be offered in Spanish. With the onset of the pandemic, our office began to offer catechist formation through Zoom. Abraham successfully conducted repeated offerings of Level I and Level II formation courses through this method. The dedication to attendance on the part of catechists and their delight with Abraham’s presentations is a testimony to his outstanding ability to witness to the faith of our Church both in person and through modern technology."

Good afternoon Mrs. Doran,
I am writing you this email to express my gratitude towards Mr. Abraham Alarcon’s teaching.
He took his time to share his knowledge and educated me to become a better catechist. I truly appreciate the way he gave all of us the opportunity to also share our experience.
He did a great job and am truly grateful. Teachers like him are angels in real life.
