Completely faithful to the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Can be used in a variety of settings, including (1) parent-with-child sessions at the parish (the best approach!) (2) at-home learning (3) a combination of at-the-parish & at-home (4) in class with the traditional catechist or classroom school teacher. The children love this approach because it has them in mind! Usable for ages 8, 9, or 10. The parents love this because it helps them do with their children what they really want: to share their faith. As a parish leader, you'll also love this approach. It's Flexible Faithful to the Church Fun for the kids Inexpensive for you Modern in every regard and most importantly, it's formation that will last a lifetime! |
| Here's what parents have said about Growing Up Catholic: I love the website! It's given me access to everything I need for my child. I wish I had had this for my older children. No one told us forming our own kids was this important. I really prefer this over having someone else teach my child about faith. You're kidding! I hope you have more of this for my child as she grows up. This is wonderful! Do you have a program like this on the Bible? Thank you for helping me with my child. |

| Here's what we know. Most adult Catholics today are active in their faith because they had the model of their own parents. It's not because they had a good textbook. Or even because they had a great catechist. (Of course, there are exceptions to this, and even parents who took great care to have God-talk in their home do have adult children who don't practice their faith. But the odds are still with the parents!) So why not coach the parents and help them for their own children. (Parents want this.) Train the catechist or teacher to be a coach and your results will be stunning! It turns out this is easy to do and very inexpensive. Growing up Catholic doesn't begin and end with getting ready for the first Confession or first Communion. It has to last a lifetime! The only way that can happen is if the parents are fully involved from baptism onward. |
