Catechesis in the mission of evangelization 1

Integrating Perspective: To be open to encountering Christ, the way to an integral humanization for people and the world.
     

PRIMARY PROCLAMATION

The primary proclamation of the Gospel opens us to the discovery of God and salvation that he offers us through Christ.

CHRISTIAN INITIATION

Christian initiation is a process of basic training, a primary education of a life in communion with Christ.

PASTORAL ACTIVITY

Pastoral activity consists in nourishing and deepening the faith, hope, and charity of disciples who already follow Christ.
     

Integrating principle:

To propose Jesus Christ who reveals the Father and is the path to humanization.

Integrating principle:

To welcome the gift of the trinitarian life as the foundation and source of humanization through Jesus Christ.

Integrating principle:

To deepen this new life through participation in ecclesial communion and the Gospel mission.

Catechesis of awakening to the faith:

Accompaniment in welcoming the Word of God, listening to the Holy Spirit and a first training for the life of a Christian.

Support for the processes of maturation in the faith.
     

The three essential moments of evangelization:
the primary proclamation, Christian initiation and pastoral activity are intertwined. Each has specific requirements and approaches concerning the training for a Christian life, particularly in its catechetical dimension.
