Do you want to learn more about your catholic faith?
Do you want to know and share the catechism of the catholic church with your children?
In parish faith communities throughout the country religious education, catechism, prayer study, and adult faith formation have been named as essential for nurturing individuals' spiritual lives and fostering a deeper relationship with God.
There have been calls for formation and training programmes to encompass a deep understanding of the Gospel message, the Church's mission in the world and Catholic Social Teaching*.
YouCat (Youth Catechism of the Catholic Church) is a faith training programme of the Christian faith for anyone who wants to learn more about what Catholics believe. YouCat is not just for young people but for anyone who wants to explore the Christian faith.
An invitation to explore the catechism of the Catholic Church
To help you learn more about YouCat and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, you are invited to the Catechism/YouCat Pilgrimage to Knock Shrine on Saturday, 15 June.
This pilgrimage is an opportunity for anyone who wants to understand their faith more deeply, in a practical way and to get to know the faith treasure of the Catholic Church. The day at Knock Shrine will include workshops and testimonies from many who lead YouCat and the Catechism programmes with individuals, groups and families in parishes across the country.
The pilgrimage Holy Mass will be celebrated by the Papal Nuncio to Ireland, Most Reverend Luis Mariano Montemayor with homilist, Bishop of Ossory, Niall Coll.
Choir music by the Mullingar Cathedral Choristers.
