YOUCAT is short for Youth Catechism of the Catholic Church, which was launched on World Youth Day, 2011. Developed with the help of young Catholics and written for high-school age people and young adults, YOUCAT is an accessible, contemporary expression of the Catholic Faith.
- The appealing graphic format includes Questions-and-Answers, highly-readable commentary, summary definitions of key terms, Bible citations and inspiring and thought-provoking quotes from Saints and others in the margins.
- What's more, YOUCAT is keyed to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, so people can go deeper.
- The questions are direct and honest, even at times tough; the answers straightforward, relevant, and compelling.
- YOUCAT will likely become the ""go-to"" place for young people to learn the truth about the Catholic faith.
- It explains:
What Catholics believe and why (doctrine)
How Catholics celebrate the mysteries of the faith (sacraments)
How Catholics are to live (moral life)
How they should pray (prayer and spirituality)
