As the Catholic Church embarks on the mission of teaching the Christian faith, the new Directory for Catechesis (2020) lays the how-to guidelines for catechesis and presents universal norms to guide pastors and catechists in the work of evangelization. The Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization presents the Directory to guide the proclamation of the Gospel by the Christian faithful to people of all ages and in all seasons of life.
A la vez que la Iglesia Católica continua con su misión de enseñar la fe cristiana, el Directorio para la Catequesis (2020) establece pautas prácticas para la catequesis y presenta normas universales para guiar la evangelización. El Pontificio Consejo para la Promoción de la Nueva Evangelización presenta el Directorio para avivar la proclamación del Evangelio a personas de todas las edades y en todas la etapas de la vida.
Catechetical expert, Deacon Matthew Halbach presents a user-friendly overview of the Catholic Church’s new Directory for Catechesis with this easy-to-read guide that makes the Directory accessible, relevant and meaningful to those involved in catechetical ministry. Perfect for both new and seasoned catechists, this reference is the ideal resource that belongs in the hands of everyone involved in catechetical ministry and religious education: catechists, pastors, Parish Catechetical Leaders, Catholic school teachers, principals, and diocesan leaders. A MUST READ resource!
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:
Witnesses. Accompanists. Keepers of the Memory of God. These are some of the ways the Directory describes what it means to be a catechist. In this inspiring booklet, Janet Schaeffler, OP, shows us how the Directory affirms and celebrates the vocation of catechists and catechetical leaders, and how each of us is called to this role in different ways. She helps catechists discover the many facets of their call—as builders of community, dynamic animators, creative artisans, and more. With engaging stories and profound wisdom, she helps catechists find new reserves of joy and peace as they respond when God says, “You are the one I need. You are the one who will make a difference.”
In this booklet, Kathy Hendricks sheds light on the rich and varied ways that catechists witness the Good News through their own personal holiness. Framed by personal stories and inspiration from saints and spiritual writers, she guides catechists through the many insights the Directory offers about how to integrate everyday holiness into catechetical ministry. From spiritual practices to the ways we experience God’s beauty, she invites catechists to tap into the deep well of holiness within them and discover their own “profound ability to attract others to the Good News of Christ and the unending mercy of God.”

Teaching and learning the faith together.
Liturgical catechesis is faith formation both for and from liturgical celebrations. It is how the Church prepares people to celebrate liturgy, and how people are led to reflect on a liturgical celebration after the experience (mystagogy). It is integral to preparation for reception of the sacraments, and essential for Catholics of all ages to an ongoing lived understanding of the experience of sacraments.
