Study Materials

Intended for groups or for self study. These were developed for use in RCIA (now OCIA) and other adult education classes in a parish.

There are three collections, from first steps in the faith to theology.

Faith Foundations Core topics in the Catholic faith Materials for an OCIA program, including resources for group leaders. They can equally be used for self study on a range of topics, and assume no prior knowledge.
GIFT Growing in Faith Together A program that takes these topics and others further, for people already familiar with the basics of the Catholic tradition; a basis for a group program, or for self study.
Theology for Parishes A faith for living, a faith for sharing More consciously theological: core topics that theology studies would address, written for a non-academic readership in parishes.
