How To Prepare a Witness Talk for Every Session
Picture
When developing your lessons plans for Faith Formation sessions, do you make it a point to include the living faith experience of yourself or someone else as a faith role model? We do not only teach content of the Catholic faith, but we are developing living witnesses of the faith-no matter their age. As Pope Francis states in The Joy of the Gospel,
​                  
 The new evangelization calls for personal involvement on the part of each of the                            baptized. Every Christian is challenged, here and now, to be actively
                    engaged in evangelization; indeed, anyone who has truly experienced
                    God’s saving love does not need much time or lengthy training to go out
                    and proclaim that love. Every Christian is a missionary to the extent that
                    he or she has encountered the love of God in Christ Jesus: we no longer say
                    that we are “disciples” and “missionaries”, but rather that we are always
                    “missionary disciples”.

Jared Dees on his blog, The Religion Teacher offers a way that a catechist can make a personal experience of one’s faith  be worked into each Faith Formation session. ​
