THE “FREE BIBLE CORRESPONDENCE COURSE” (FCC) PROGRAMME

A person of different faith, wanting to know Lord Jesus is considered a “Seeker” / ENQUIRER. This is also because they are often-times filled with queries and SEEKING ANSWERS to questions with regard to Christ Jesus, HIS Church, the Catholic Faith etc... They can be anyone from any social strata / speak different languages / may be employed or not…

When such an “Enquirer” gets in touch with CEC Co-workers at the CEC Office or at a Table Ministry in an Outreach Mission, the person is given options to choose from the Archdiocesan CEC’s FREE BIBLE CORRESPONDENCE COURSES (FCC offered in English, Kannada, and Tamil, from the Bangalore Office). ONLY when the Enquirer is ready and willing (of FREE will) would a “Consent Card” or the “Contact Card” be given to sign-in for the FCC Programme. This card will ask for basic information like Name, Contact Number, Address etc.

As a “Registered Enquirer” the person is free to read through and understand the Course Material at their own convenient pace. They are also free to call / contact the CEC Office for help in areas where they might need further explanation. They are also advised to send in completed Question Papers at the end of some sections, so as to help CEC evaluate their understanding.

Sometimes, Enquirers may call in for Prayer, Counselling, Information regarding Sacraments (Baptism, Holy Communion, Confirmation, Marriage etc) when he/she is guided to the appropriate Team in the Catholic Church for pastoral help.
