LA Religious Ed Congress

St. Charles Borromeo

Patron Saint of Catechists

 

I recently was fortunate to attend (for the first time) the LA Religious Ed Congress.  I walked through what seemed like miles of booths in the exhibitors’ hall.  Many of those booths were full of materials from publishers offering resources to help catechists.   While I think a catechist who lives and understands stewardship as receiving gratefully, cultivating responsibly, sharing lovingly, and returning generously and communicates that through their catechesis is what is needed, often it is helpful to have additional resources.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Here are a few of the more popular resources:

      ·         Taking Care of Gods Gifts (OSV) – for younger kids

·         7 Steps to Becoming Financially Free (OSV) – for adults    
 

·         Stewardship, A Way of Life.  Four Faith Sharing Sessions (Liturgical Press) – for adults

·         Catholic Strengths and Engagement Community website

·         Stewardship Bulletin Inserts (Parish Publishing)

·         A Catholic Kids Guide to Stewardship (Twenty Third Publications)

·         The Bible Speaks of Stewardship – A Four Session Study (Twenty Third Publications)
 

If anyone has used any of these resources, or has other ideas for resources, please let us all know via the comment section below.  Thank You.  Scott Bader
