A Faithful and Engaging Catechetical Series
Is Now Even Better!

The Faith and Life religious education series presents Catholic teaching using time-tested methods of catechesis and faith formation, in a beautiful, student-friendly, comprehensive format.

It is excellent for grades 1-8 in Catholic schools, parish catechetical programs, and home schools.

Correlated with the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the revised edition features increased use of Scripture to complement the series’ outstanding presentation of Catholic doctrine and practices. The teacher's books use a convenient wrap-around format and a color-coded system to help make lesson planning easier and more effective.
