Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to make a detailed study of the subject: the catechists' formation of the dioceses of Loja, for the realization of it, a survey has been applied to 120 catechists from seven parishes of this diocese, both urban and rural areas, analyzing the results, it can be seen that with regard to the formation of catechists, we must improve a lot, especially in the use of strategies, instruments, teaching, because it is only in a traditional catechesis, questions and answers, exams and lessons and attendance control. The common thread that has been the reference and has served to have a framework in order to deepen this topic has been the general directory of catechesis (1997), from which the dimensions that must be taken into account in the formation of catechist who are: The being; knowledge; and the know-how of the catechist, here converge some aspects of both doctrinal theological order (Orthodoxy), and pastoral catechetical (Orthopraxis).
