Survey of Course Participants
STEP needs your help to improve its communication. We created a short survey, asking about your motivation to take our courses as well as how you tell other people about STEP. We will be grateful to hear your thoughts.
Please watch your inbox later this week for an email from Qualtrics, a survey tool used by the University of Notre Dame. Thank you for your time and help!

New Publications from the Institute for Church Life
Beginning in February, the Institute for Church Life will be launching a new site churchlife.nd.edu. This accessible, online version of Church Life will focus on the categories of theology, practice and culture related to the pastoral needs of the Church. In addition to substantial articles, the platform for Church Life will integrate the Center for Liturgy’s blog, Oblation: Liturgy and Life. This integration will better feature columnists and shorter pieces by Notre Dame students.
These changes to Church Life will make the rich content more accessible to help with our shared work of evangelization.

Improving Preaching
Notre Dame launches an initiative for better Catholic preaching. The new program will make use of online learning courses, numerous group discussions, coaching from homiletics experts and even assessments from some of the hundreds of people to whom the priests and deacons preach each week.
