Creemos Identidad católica
This consumable, fully bilingual (English on one side, Spanish on the other), full-color workbook for students to use in a parish setting presents catechetical lessons while integrating prayer, liturgy, retreats, and a focus on Catholic identity and social teaching.
In the Latino community, catechesis is for the whole family. The Catholic Identity Edition of Creemos contains these family-engagement resources:
- Keeping Our Traditions Alive/Manteniendo vivas nuestras tradiciones
- Retreats/Retiro for adults—from parents, grandparents, and godparents to the parish community
- Bringing the Retreat Home/Llevando el retiro a casa
- Dear Family/Apreciada familia letters
- Catechesis at Home/Catequesis en el hogar
- Resources for the Family/Recursos para la familia
Catechist Guides
With one-session plans for parish settings, this guide provides:
- Goals for the unit, references to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, key words, and a background for the catechist
- Clear, concise lessons that follow a 3-step catechetical process
- Project Disciple activities that help children to pray, celebrate, share, and live out their faith
- Seasonal chapters that integrate prayer experiences and ritual celebrations
Leader’s Guides
Plan and lead retreats with confidence using this easy-to-follow Leader’s Guide. With support for anyone including volunteers as they plan and deliver four Catholic Identity Retreats, the Guide offers guidance to run a short 30-minute or 2-hour expanded session.
Retreat themes relate to one of the four pillars of the Catechism of the Catholic Church--Creed, Liturgy & Sacraments, Morality, and Prayer. Every grade explores the same pillar at the same time, supporting whole-community catechesis.
