ResourcesEvangelization and Catechesis Resources

In a society that is searching for purpose and meaning in life, Christians today must witness to the Truth of the Gospel, bringing Christ to the world. Documents discussing Catholic education and schools as well as evangelization and catechesis are offered below. Catechetical tools that can aide in the teaching and preaching of the faith are also offered. May the Holy Spirit enflame our hearts to seek always the face of the Lord.

The Church’s commitment to evangelization can never be lacking, since according to His own promise, the presence of the Lord Jesus in the power of the Holy Spirit will never be absent from her: “I am with you always, even until the end of the world” (Matthew 28:20)…“Caritas Christi urget nos—the love of Christ impels us” (2 Corinthians 5:14): the lives of innumerable Catholics bear witness to this truth. Throughout the entire history of the Church, people motivated by the love of Jesus have undertaken initiatives and works of every kind in order to proclaim the Gospel to the entire world and in all sectors of society, as a perennial reminder and invitation to every Christian generation to fulfill with generosity the mandate of Christ. Therefore, as Pope Benedict XVI recalls, “the proclamation of and witness to the Gospel are the first service that Christians can render to every person and to the entire human race, called as they are to communicate to all God’s love, which was fully manifested in Jesus Christ, the one Redeemer of the world.” (Cardinal William Levada)
