A Guide for Reflection
This Spanish-language video is based on the Catechism of the Catholic Church and invites us to reflect on our Christian obligation in the real world and the Catholic faith that we live personally and in our communities. The program is designed for personal or group use in catechetical ministry. Rather than being a summary of the Catechism or a summary of Catholic teaching, the video is an invitation to reflect on some themes that are found in the four principal parts of the Catechism: Faith, Sacraments, Commandments, and Prayer. From the U.S. bishops' Catholic Communication Campaign.
