Celebrating the New Directory for 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.”
