Resources for Catechists
Each year, the Office for Evangelization and Catechesis produces a resource for catechists. The theme of this year’s resource is What Do You Seek? The resource has two purposes. On one hand, it is an invitation for catechists to consider the way in which discernment helps them as they strive to live out their vocation. On the other hand, in light of the upcoming Synod of Bishops on Young People, the Faith and Vocational Discernment, it is an invitation for catechists to enter into dialogue with young people, to accompany them as they grow in faith and to help them as they discern where God is calling them.
The resource may be useful likewise at any time throughout the pastoral year; however, some dioceses and parishes may choose to have a designated Catechetical Sunday. Included in the resource are suggestions for blessings and the commissioning of catechists, links to reflections on faith, vocation and discernment, and easy to use PowerPoint presentations. It also includes reflections on the Scriptural readings of Sunday, 23 September 2018, to coincide with Catechetical Sunday celebrated particularly in Québec.
