Jump Starts for Catechists: The Prayer Journey

The Jump Starts for Catechists series offers catechists quick, hands-on tips for their faith formation sessions. Each booklet provides practical and “classroom-tested” information, formation, and ideas that are valuable for beginning as well as experienced catechists. The single most important factor in the lives of a catechist and their children and teens is their relationship with God. One name we give that relationship is prayer. The Prayer Journey covers basic areas of the prayer relationship. It provides the theology, background, methodology, and techniques to help catechists more effectively guide their learners in their prayer life. Since the primary means for achieving this is through the catechists’ own example, The Prayer Journey is an invaluable guide for catechists in their own relationship with God. It is also a helpful resource for families and persons involved in the RCIA process.
