The Great Role of Parents and Family

assisting us in our formation by informing us.

- 1.)
"Parents are the first to pass on the faith
to their children & to educate them in
it." (Second Vatican Council's Decree
on Laity)
-
- 2.
"Catechesis is an education in the faith of
children, young people & adults..."
"...in an organic & systematic
way...", "...into the fullness of
Christian life."
- (Catechism
of the Catholic Church (CCC) - p. 8, no. 5, 1994
USCCB, Ligouri Press, St. Louis)
-
- 3.) The
Family and the Church "build(s) catechesis
on four pillars:"
- (Church
teaching from Sacred Tradition, Sacred Scripture,
the teaching Magisterium of the Church (the Pope,
and the Bishops in communion witgh him...) (CCC -
p. 9, no. 13)
4.) The Four
Pillars of Catechesis...The Creed, The Liturgy & The
Sacraments, The Life of Faith (the moral life), & The
Lord's Prayer. (See CCC) or The Roman Catechism.
5.) Parents
teach eating, sleeping, dressing, cleaning, working,
counting, pronounciation, etc. - PARENTS ARE TEACHERS!
6.) Parents
teach manners, responsibility, respect, right from wrong,
prayers & why God made us. - PARENTS ARE
CATECHISTS! (If parents wrote down the things they already
say or do to teach & to catechize, they might be very
surprised. )
7.) Parents
could write down what they already say or do in a FAMILY DAILY CATECHISM
SCHEDULE
& use it with the Catechism ABCs of Ask a Catechism
Question for the Bulletin Board, according to the Church
Calendar.
