Synopsis
Much has been written about Christian initiation, but most of it has been written from the perspective of the large urban or suburban parish. People in rural areas and small towns live in a culture different from those in cities and suburbs, and the ministry to catechumens and candidates should reflect those differences. In A Harvest for God: Christian Initiation in the Rural and Small-Town Parish, Michael Clay offers practical, step-by-step insights into implementing the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults in a way that is faithful to the rite and respectful of rural culture. Anyone who ministers in a rural or small-town catechumenate will find this book a valuable aid. Published by Liturgy Training Publications.

From the Publisher
In a culture where "bigger is better" is a way of life, the notion of "small is beautiful" may appear quaint, especially to those who have never lived or ministered in the rural and small-town parishes of the United States. The estimated 20 million U.S. Catholics who live in this setting would beg to differ. This book is a first-generation attempt to assist initiation ministers in their efforts to help rural adults and children of catechetical age as they discern their way through the process of Christian initiation.
