Use these prayers for personal enrichment or adapt them for use at a catechist meeting. Whether you are a new or seasoned catechist, these uplifting prayers will renew, refresh, and inspire you from the first to the last.
30 Rituals and Prayer Services for Catechist and Teacher Meetings by Alison J. Berger Pdf
Prayer, especially prayer as a faith community, is essential to any kind of ministry. This is perhaps even more true for catechists and religion teachers, who are called to be ministers of the word. 30 Rituals and Prayer Services for Catechist and Teacher Meetings provides deeply moving and meaningful ways for catechists and teachers to celebrate their ministry. These beautifully prepared rituals and services, rich in Scripture and liturgy, can lead participants into a profound encounter with God and with one another. Themes include liturgical seasons, aspects of the catechetical ministry, the beatitudes, the sacraments, and more. One form of prayer used in these services is lectio divina, an ancient method for praying the Scriptures. Also unique to this book are rituals based on the rites of the liturgy, including those used in the RCIA process. These services can easily be adapted to the needs of your group. Each service is a complete prayer experience suitable for meetings as well as for days of prayer and reflection. For catechetical leaders, Catholic school principals, catechists, and religion teachers, 30 Rituals and Prayer Services for Catechist and Teacher Meetings is a must-have resource. Book jacket.
Catholic school leaders and teachers will love this book! It has everything-absolutely everything-they want and need to know about prayer in school. Sr. Kathleen is a veteran teacher and it's clear that she has "been there and done that" with great joy and enthusiasm. But she knows that not every teacher feels secure about praying with a class, even though they know it's important and realize that parents entrust them with this responsibility. And she also realizes that certain Catholic prayer forms are a mystery to them. On the other hand, there are those who feel very comfortable teaching prayer but are looking for fresh ideas.
Systematic Catechizing by Henry Harrison Oberly Pdf
Excerpt from Systematic Catechizing: Directions and Suggestions for Catechists and Teachers; Hand-Book to Lessons on the Prayer Book Catechism Before the sponsors leave the font with the child which they have brought to be baptized, the priest says to them, "Ye are to take care that this child be brought to the Bishop to be confirmed by him, so soon as he can say the Creed, the Lord's Prayer, and the Ten Commandments, and is sufficiently instructed in the other parts of the Church Catechism set forth for that purpose." In this admonition to the sponsors, the Church defines what religious instruction the child is to receive, and what is to be done when the instruction has been given. Confirmation is the next sacramental step in the child's spiritual life, and this is to be followed immediately by Holy Communion which is, equally with the Baptism which has just been administered, necessary to salvation.

Teaching Catechists to Pray by Mary Kathleen Glavich Pdf
This comprehensive guide and its companion, The Catholic Way to Pray, answers the prayers of many catechetical leaders across the country. "How in the world," they ask, "do we offer catechists a way to pray as Catholic adults? How do we hand on to them the many beautiful traditions of prayer embraced by our Church? How do we help them 'teach' prayer?"
Fr. Thomas Dubay, a renowned teacher and writer on prayer and the spiritual life, presents a simple, profound and practical book on the most important of all human activities, communion with God. Prayer Primer is written for intelligent adults (and teenagers) who want God and a serious prayer life, but it does not presuppose that they need or have a theological background. It does take up many questions rarely answered adequately in the classroom or from the pulpit, often not mentioned at all: Why pray? (be ready for some surprises) ... Why vocal prayer is important and yet should be limited ... What contemplation is and is not ... Praying with Scripture ... Family prayer - even how to introduce children to group meditation ... Prayer in a busy life ... Pitfalls and problems - together with solutions ... Buddhism? New Age? Centering prayer? ... What should you do when dry and empty and not at all inclined to pray? How do you even get started? ... Where and how to begin? ... Assessing progress ... Growing in depth. All of these subjects, and more, are clearly and concisely explained for citizens of this 21st century.
