Cultural Offerings

Building a culture requires more than formal catechetical training, which is why CCMA is dedicated to offering people from all walks of life (families, catechists, young adults, priests, and religious) opportunities to grow in the Faith and fold the Catechesis into their lives. Whether through handwork or liturgical arts, parent information classes, retreats, or specialized material-making classes, our “Ora et Labora” (Pray and Work) offerings are designed to strengthen community and preserve a rich and bountiful culture, based on the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd.

Our materials are, “indications of the hidden reality of God. They are concrete helps to know the language, times and places of the mystery of God. The child will make the mystery his own, according to his own nature, his own capacities and his own personal rhythm of learning.”
