Motherhood and Fatherhood in our Catechesis

In this year, when we are focusing on the Father, Mary Killeen invites us to consider the significance of ‘fatherhood’ and ‘motherhood’ in our catechesis.

In our catechesis we seek to offer an education in the faith that will initiate others into the fullness of Christian life. In light of such a wondrous endeavor, it is proper that we reflect more deeply on the significance of ‘fatherhood’ and ‘motherhood’ in our catechesis. These realities offer a living framework for the whole of our catechetical work.
