Journey of Faith for Children introduces children to the Catholic faith in a way that’s easy for them to understand, using an engaging pastoral approach. Based on the ever-popular and long-running adult Christian initiation program from Liguori Publications, Journey of Faith for Children provides a solid catechetical foundation. The warm and engaging style of the Redemptorists speaks to children about faith topics in a way that starts them on a lifelong journey of knowing and loving Jesus.
The lessons in Journey of Faith for Children, Mystagogy lead children, now full members of the Church, into full participation with their Church and parish communities. At confirmation, children are given 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.
Children learn at their own pace. They learn by asking questions and by doing. That’s why we’ve combined the lessons with a variety of engaging activities to appeal to a variety of learners in a way that’s flexible enough for you to modify to your unique needs. Each lesson also includes a colorful, animated drawing and ongoing story that captures children’s attention and enables them to see their own faith journey mirrored in the fictional adventures of Mrs. Evans and her RCIA class.
The comprehensive Leader Guide gives you everything you need to walk into your RCIA class and start leading–whether you’re a veteran RCIA instructor or a first-time volunteer. Additional discussion points prepare you for their responses and keep the conversation going. The contemporary wraparound design enables you to see what the children see so you can spend more time teaching and growing in faith alongside your group.
