Catechism of the Catholic Church – Adult Studies is a growing apostolate dedicated to the promotion of adult learning in the Truths of the Catholic Faith. Our mission is inspired by the words of St John Paul II: “Guarding the deposit of faith is the mission which the Lord has entrusted to his Church and which she fulfils in every age” (Fidei Depositum).  

We have experienced the grace-filled results of studying the Catechism. It brings faith to life in the hearts of God’s people. We use the model of adult group learning, so hence the name, Catechism of the Catholic Church Adult Studies. Each group member undertakes daily reading from the Catechism according to our carefully devised, systematic Reading Plan. Once a week, the group, along with their Priest Spiritual Director and Facilitator, gather together to discuss the reading. Each member is encouraged to be an active participant by sharing points of learning and participating in group discussion.

The growth in faith and knowledge of each individual is evident as study progresses over the weeks, months and years of the study with the ongoing support of the Priest Spiritual Director and the group Facilitator. The group grows in faith and understanding over three years of study. Participants support each other in prayer, and contribute in charity and mutual respect to one another’s learning. It truly is learning and living the Catholic faith.

You can find out more about the work and how to establish a study group in your local area by visiting www.catechism.ie.

United in Prayer,
Sincerely,
CCC Adult Studies Steering Committee (based in Ireland)
