—A catechetical instruction, “The Holy Mysteries of Service,” emended, from We Walk With Christ.

Note: If you are looking for additional resources for this Sunday, designated as catechetical Sunday, the bishop has posted information on the Eparchy’s website from God With Us under news. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, which developed this day, and which our bishops are members of, provides a different theme and different resources on their website. The USCCB theme has a focus on missionary discipleship, which is well related to the emphasis of our bishops on mission, evangelization, the call to holiness, and living the Holy Gospel. You can access that information here.

Our next issue will be October 1, 2024.
