Directory for Catechesis Correlation

We at Pflaum Gospel Weeklies have developed a correlation between the Directory for Catechesis (Published in 2020) and the Gospel Weeklies. Our program correlates well to the Directory, especially in the areas of family catechesis and liturgical catechesis, in particular through the use of the Gospels in catechetical instruction.

Liturgical Learning Model

Liturgical Learning

Pflaum Gospel Weeklies is a systematic liturgical catechetical program centered in Jesus Christ. The program interweaves the seasons and celebrations of the Liturgical Year with the unchanging authentic doctrine of the Catholic Church. Each of the program’s 32 lessons focuses on a unique doctrinal theme that connects the Sunday Gospel to the Catechism of the Catholic Church. This guarantees that every year, Sacred Scripture and Sacred Doctrine are introduced and reinforced at an age-appropriate level.
