“Invites us all to ask questions” “We use Journey of Faith for Children, Teens and Adults throughout our whole program, and we are excited to see it updated. It is an excellent tool that engages the learner and invites us all to ask questions. It teaches the core of what it means to be Catholic.” Maggie Martin, Director of Religious Education, St. John of God Church, Central Islip, NY

Catechumenate (Catecumenado) The concepts in Journey of Faith, Catechumenate include the RCIA process and rites, salvation history, lessons on each of the sacraments, Church history, dignity of life, social justice, and moral living. Mystagogy (Mistagogia) Journey of Faith, Mystagogy leads the new members of the Church, into full participation with their Church and parish communities. At confirmation, they receive the gift of the Holy Spirit and the mission to evangelize. These Mystagogy lessons focus on how to become witnesses for Christ, how to continue their faith formation now that they are fully initiated into the Church, and how to share the joy and enthusiasm they have for the faith with others.
