Catechesis
Catechesis is sharing the whole message of Christianity, the good news of the gospel, with others. It is centered on Jesus Christ and is aimed at all members of the church–adults, youth, children–to deepen and mature their faith. It is much more than instruction about Catholic Christian beliefs; it is also of personal faith by committed Christians.
