Written by Kathy M. Garcia
In Pope Francis’ Evangelii Guadium document,
(November 26, 20143) he shares the importance of
catechesis in his writings: “Every form of catechesis
would do well to attend to the ‘way of beauty’ (via
pulchritudinis). Proclaiming Christ means showing

505-831-8104
joy, even in the midst of difficulties. Every expression
szuni@archdiosf.org
of true beauty can thus be acknowledged as a path
leading to an encounter with the Lord Jesus.”
In Mark 16:15, the scripture declares: “And then he told them, ‘Go into the entire world and preach the Good News to everyone.’” We
have been commanded to go out into our world to share, teach, guide and set the example of discipleship to the whole church, including
children. When we hear the word ‘beauty’, what images come to mind? Perhaps a new born baby, a sunrise during the fall or the first fallen
snow in the winter season. It is interesting that Pope Francis equates the teaching of the faith with beauty, new splendor and profound joy.
Pope Francis’ reflective statement should encourage each catechist around the world to begin teaching with joy. When children arrive to
class with anticipation to learn about Jesus and his church, are they received with enthusiasm? To bring this joy into the classroom, catechists should strive to possess in their own lives joy, beauty and the wonder of God’s creation. Only by possessing these attributes themselves teachers are able to exemplify what Pope Francis asks from each of us. In everyday life challenges arise, and each catechist whether
new or seasoned, brings to the classroom her/his own personal faith and life experiences, distractions and obligations. Children also, arrive
to class with distractions such as television, social media and sports. How then, do we as catechists, bring forth beauty into the classroom,
our parishes and the world in the midst of challenges? We must begin, by examining our own walk with the Lord. As people of faith, followers of Christ, we must make our lives a testimony of Christ’s love for us. Growing in our own spiritual lives can include: attending classes to
increase our knowledge of the faith, deepen our own prayer life with others or in solitude and allowing God’s joy to shine through us by our
words and deeds. In the October 2014 issue of Creative Catechist, Susan Kay makes the statement “The Catechist’s first obligation is to love
the learner”. To love the learner requires not only the desire to teach, but also to bring joy into the classroom and as the Holy Father
states, ‘to bring something beautiful capable of filling life with new splendor.’ Oftentimes safety, following rules and lesson planning takes
priority when teaching Religious Education classes, while creating a joyful setting may not be. Pope Francis has set a new standard for all
catechists to strive for; to create an environment where beauty, splendor and joy go hand in hand with teaching and guiding future generations of faith-filled Catholics eager to proclaim to world the good news of Christ. The office of Religious Education provides classes that
equip catechists to reach their full potential. Classes such as Creativity and the Catechetical Environment and Storytelling in Catechesis provide substantial ideas that can be implemented in the classroom for any grade level. For information of upcoming classes, beginning or
completing certification, contact Kathy at the Office of Religious Education (see box).
