THE ENCOUNTERING JESUS SERIES

Take a tour at encounteringjesusseries.com “The definitive aim of catechesis is to put people not only in touch but in COMMUNION, in INTIMACY, WITH JESUS CHRIST.” —ST. JOHN PAUL II

These words of St. John Paul II are at the core of our high school theology curriculum and the Encountering Jesus series. By expanding their knowledge of the life of Jesus, his mission, and his saving actions, teens ready themselves for active participation in his Body, the Church, communion with him in the Sacraments, and friendship with him through right living with their neighbors.

To encounter Jesus is much different than to only learn about him, meet him, or know him. TO ENCOUNTER JESUS DEMANDS A DEEPER CONNECTION THAT LEADS TO A RESPONSE.

Five years after she graduated from high school, teacher, youth minister, and sought-after speaker Katie Prejean returned to her alma mater in Lake Charles, Louisiana, to teach freshman theology.

To Heal, Proclaim, and Teach

The Essential Guide to Ministry in Today’s Catholic Church Jared Dees

Popular author, catechist, and creator of The Religion Teacher website Jared Dees learned a valuable lesson from his students: teaching is not the same as evangelization. He found instead—as in Jesus’ own ministry—if you focus first on healing the wounded, then proclaiming the Word of God, and finally teaching, you can bring people of all ages to Christ. Using examples from his own teaching, stories from the Bible, and the lives of the saints, Dees offers a fresh and engaging approach and practical ideas for following the ministry of Jesus in your own work.
