Catechesi Tradendae

Perhaps no other papal document more fluently articulates the importance of catechesis in our time — and how to undertake it — than Catechesi Tradendae. Written by St. John Paul II, this apostolic exhortation describes the important and unique roles the Church, the laity, and the family play in ensuring that all Catholics not only understand the faith, but are prepared to live it fully.

“I am grateful for this new study edition of Catechesi Tradendae, and I pray that your reading and study of this great exhortation will fill you with the wisdom of St. John Paul II.” Bishop Kevin Vann, Bishop of Orange, CA
