Parish Edition
Invite learners to know, love and serve God and share more deeply in the truths, history, language, celebrations, and traditions of the Catholic Church with Christ Jesus, the Way, Parish.
Complete and faith-filled formation is offered through a story-based approach in which children are:• engaged and are invited to learn (assess prior knowledge)
• discover (learn Catholic doctrine and Scripture)
• and live (engage in activities and prayer that help them live what they’ve learned).
Features include the unique A Little Catechism - a “book within a book” – organized according to knowledge, love, and service and correlated to each of the student book’s chapters. You will invite children to know, love, and serve God and, through the special Faith in Action feature, share how saints (related to the lesson’s content) lived their lives and encourage children and their families to join in prayer and activities using the Home and Family page provided in each chapter. A special partnership with Maryknoll brings a strong commitment to mission and vocation to this popular program.
