RESOURCES FOR PARENTS

Every parent is a catechist. Catechesis (instruction in the faith) begins the moment a child is born. "Family members help one another grow in faith by the witness of a Christian life in keeping with the Gospel... Parents have the mission of teaching their children to pray and to discover their vocation as children of God." (Catechism of the Catholic Church, #2226)

The following resources may be helpful to parents:

• Adult Faith Formation Opportunities
• New American Bible online
• Catechism of the Catholic Church
