The Gospel for All Ages
is a simple and effective way to use lectionary-based
periodicals as the cornerstone for whole community
catechesis. It is a cooperative effort of the Pflaum
Publishing Group, publishers of the Pflaum Gospel
Weeklies, and Good Ground Press, publishers of Spirit
and Sunday by Sunday.
Right here you will find online resources that will harness
the power of the
Pflaum Gospel Weeklies (preschool through Grade
8),
Spirit
(for older teens), and
Sunday by Sunday
(for adults) into a simple and coherent parish-wide
catechesis.
