We all participate in the Church's mission of proclaiming the Good News of Jesus to the world. In this statement, the bishops present a pastoral plan to help Catholics advance in their role as disciples, by awakening a renewal in the ministry of adult faith formation and helping all to grow to the full maturity of Christ.

In four parts, the plan examines the challenges and opportunities faced today, the key qualities of a mature faith, the principles and approaches for providing sound adult faith formation, and the critical roles of parish leadership and diocesan support.

“With practical guidance rooted in Scripture and the catechumenal model, this pastoral plan remains a vital tool for pastors, coordinators, and parish teams ready to reimagine catechesis as a lifelong, parish-wide journey of discipleship.”

—Sr. Rosalia Meza, vdmf

Senior Director

Office of Religious Education

Archdiocese of Los Angeles, CA

“Our Hearts Were Burning Within Us is the practical plan for kerygmatic catechesis, inspired by the catechumenate, to come alive in our parishes. Originally published in 1999, it was timely then. It is urgent now.”

—Jeff Hines

Director

Office of Faith Formation

Diocese of Little Rock, AR
