CAT 600 Evangelization and the Liturgy

This course begins by exploring the fundamental conviction that evangelization is the deepest identity of the Church and therefore influences every facet of her life.  The Church's liturgy - because it makes present the Pascal Mystery - is both summit and font of this evangelistic mission.  Students will investigate not only the nature and interdependence of evangelization and the liturgy, but also their importance to the contemporary renewal of catechetical practice.  Students will additionally come to understand how a close study of sacramental theology can positively influence catechetical practice, particularly by way of well-conceived approaches to sacramental preparation and mystagogical catechesis.
