Revised and updated Teacher's Manuals:

The new teacher’s manuals feature daily lesson plans in a wrap-around format. In a large (9"x12") page layout, the new manuals facilitate speedy references and are perfectly coordinated with the textbooks, outlining an entire school year of plans for lessons, games, songs, and activities.

Also included are expanded appendices with tests and quizzes for each chapter. Supplementing the new teacher’s manuals (and providing much of the material necessary for the lesson plans) are the expanded activity books, featuring enjoyable and creative activities for children at every grade level.

The new Faith and Life religion series is being hailed as a new breakthrough in the field of religious education. It is a comprehensive Catholic program that combines beautiful classical and original artwork with a solid doctrinal and Scriptural presentation in an easy to read and stimulating format that is being praised by teachers, students and parents everywhere.

The lessons in Faith and Life incorporate the four principal components of catechesis—the Creed, the Commandments, the Sacraments and Liturgy, Prayer and Scripture.

Church Documents

From Our Founder

To quite an extraordinary degree we laymen have been invited to serve; we have received a visitation; God through His Church is telling us things. As we have said in our CUF brochure, we believe that the Council documents on the Apostolate of the Laity and on the Church are “prophetic” in having seen that the Church is entering the “age of the laity.” That means the response of large numbers of laymen to the call to perfection; it means an awakening to the depth and totality of Christ’s call; it means a real conversion into that leaven, that salt, that light which Christ has asked-and allows-us to be, so that the world can be permeated by the spirit of the Gospel, can be raised as by leaven, can be given savor as by salt, can be illumined as by a great light shining in a great darkness. That, we believe, is the task of evangelization assigned to the laity.
