The Rosary and the Vocation to Catechesis
Echoing the Richness of God's Saving Act
By Derek Rotty


The catechist is called to know and echo on the richness of God’s saving act in Christ which is readily accessible through meditating on the Mysteries of the Rosary.

 

The Rosary is a valuable methodological tool for catechists because it can provide precious insights into how the various mysteries apply to the catechetical vocation.  Catechists who seek to receive such lessons from the Rosary will understand more deeply how the events of Christ’s life relate to teaching Catholic doctrine and spirituality.  Finally, those who use this tool will gain the help of Mary, who is the preeminent  example of fruitful catechetical methods.
