Youcat Materials

YOUCAT Materials

Cardinal Schönborn said:
"The ability to give answers to questions regarding one’s own faith has become much more urgent now than in my generation. In the Catechism, which is simply an attempt to present the Catholic Faith, there may be much that people will have difficulty to accept. Some things will seem foreign or contradictory to the way we think today.
But I think that one of the most important tasks of such a book and the work related to it is learning to deal with challenging topics."
Faith needs community. The YOUCAT was developed through a joint effort and it should also promote and encourage community. If a community wants to be more than a social gathering, if it wants to be a community of faith, then it needs a common basis. Read and study YOUCAT together!
Study groups also exist on Facebook! Get involved!
YOUCAT fits well into youth groups, summer camps and confirmation classes!
YOUCAT is ideal for religion classes and Sunday schools!

The entire YOUCAT is commented by illustrative stick figures. They lighten up the format and encourage each person to creatively reflect on his or her faith. They are a part of the identity of YOUCAT. A special highlight is the flipbook on the lower right corner. Have you tried it?
