Publisher's Synopsis
Teachers of religious education and would-be catechists will find valuable practical and spiritual aid in Practical Catechesis. Reflected here is the view of experienced and respected catechist Judith Dunlap that catechesis is a matter of heart as well as head-for-mational as well as instructional. She offers practical ways of making that kind of catechesis happen and help with widely ranging challenges to religious educators, from setting up a parish video library to facilitating adult catechesis, from evangelizing and catechizing our children, to catechesis for the developmentally and physically challenged.
The material is arranged according to themes: Visions and Tasks; Message, Community, Service: Family-Style; Catechesis, Liturgy and the Liturgical Year; Those to Be Catechized; and Catechesis: A Shared Ministry. Includes an index.
