SALE - The Scope and Tasks of Catechesis

The new Directory for Catechesis provides an opportunity to renew and refresh the call to catechetical ministry. The Refresh Your Faith series offers hands-on applications of the Directory’s principles for catechists, catechetical leaders, parents, and all those involved in this vital ministry.

It’s been more than two decades since a pontifical document on catechesis was published. Here, Dr. Carole Eipers focuses on the Directory’s call for a new kind of catechesis—“an itinerary of faith”—as she guides us through the newly named Five Tasks of Catechesis:

• Leading to Knowledge of the Faith;
• Initiating into the Celebration of the Mystery;
• Forming for Life in Christ;
• Teaching Prayer;
• Introduction to Community Life.

In clear and succinct language, Dr. Eipers outlines how the Directory guides us to catechize in a contemporary world through “the living encounter with Christ.”
