As we reflect on Pope Francis’s teachings, we celebrate his profound impact on the Church and the world, and we carry forward his vision of faith, compassion, and action. These three reading guides offer a summary of every article in Pope Francis’s groundbreaking documents and a small group reflection process to help everyone read and understand them. The article numbers in the original are retained for ease in moving between the guide and the actual encyclical.
The six small group sessions outlined in each booklet include group reading, discussion, prayer, and action suggestions (for communal or personal use), making them ideal for youth ministry, confirmation programs, parish leaders, small communities, clergy groups, adult formation, the RCIA, or families.
