We know that for eucharistic ministers, it is necessary for them to fulfill strict moral standards.
I fail to see why such is not rquired for catecesis instructors - they are naturally role models for the catechumens.
In my parish, it is so well-known that the heroine of the big 'affair scandal' fills not just the role of Parish councillor, but catechesis instructor, at the instigation of the PP, the hero of this "affair scandal".
Most of the parishioners would indeed wish to know what the Diocesan standards for such instructors are - apart from the fact that they need NO formal catechesis training. What is their moral and/or behaviorial standards required to be?

Why should a catechists' required moral standard different from ours? It is not only the catechists' responsibility but also ours to live a proper Christian life.
The second reading for the Christmas Eve's Mass (Titus 2: 11-14) is ALWAYS my favourite passage and it often resounds in my heart:
"For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all men, training us to renounce irreligion and worldly passions, and to live sober, upright, and godly lives in this world, awaiting our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity and to purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds."
