What Do I Do Now? A Guide for the Reluctant Catechist (Catechist Formation)

Here's a lighthearted but very serious companion for those catechists who feel that same reluctant tug the disciples felt when they were sent out to spread the Good News of God's Kingdom. What Do I Do Now? is filled with simple and clear advise for catechists: answers to pressing questions, short reflections to build confidence in handing on the Catholic Faith, and oodles of resources to help catechists in their own formation.

Susan Stark became a grade seven catechist as a freshman in college. She has spent twenty-five years working at the parish, diocesan, and national levels. She has authored resources for children, youth, young adults, parents and families. Susan and her husband David live in San Diego with their four children. As a freshman in the Augustinian college seminary, Dan Pierson (without reservation or reluctance) volunteered as a catechist because it gave him a weekly opportunity to leave the seminary for the "real world". From that time on, he has served as a catechist, a teacher in Catholic school, parish DRE, and diocesan catechetical director. Dan, wife Margaret, and son Fabian live in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
