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 - formational as well as instructional. Drawing on the General Directory for Catechesis, she offers practical ways of making that kind of catechesis happen. Issues addressed include setting up a parish video library, facilitating adult catechesis, evangelizing and catechizing our children, and 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. There is an index and a Foreword by Dr. Francoise Darcy-Berube.
