The author, meeting the demands, points to the fact that person of a catechist is significant in the process of transmitting the contents of a catechesis and requires a proper spiritual formation. In the ministration of catechists one seeks certain authenticity and conformity with the mission of the Servant of the Word in the fellowship of the Church. The catechist through the very fact of his participation in the mission of the Only Teacher Jesus Christ, becomes at the same time intimately linked with Christ. The spiritual Life which was initiated in the Holy Baptism demands that catechists be continually developing and cooperating with the Holy Ghost, proportionally to the tasks which they have to meet. On the basis of abundant literature the author defines and characterises the range of the concept “spirituality of catechists”. Then he discusses the basic dimensions which mould the spiritual life of catechists such as: the Word of God – Christ, the fellowship of the Church, service to man as well as the integrating activity of the Holy Ghost. Referring the catechist to Christ, the Church, to another man and to the activity of the Holy Ghost is the foundation of the Spiritual formation and determines its specific character. The above considerations have been supported by practical conclusions.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/formacja duchowaduchowośćduchowość katechetówkatecheciwymiary duchowości katechetówkatechezateologiateologia pastoralnaformacjaspiritual formationspiritualityspirituality of catechistscatechistsdimensions of catechists' spiritualitycatechesistheologypastoral theologyformationArticle
