Religious Education Forum: The Past of the Church: An Essential for the Adolescent.

Consuela, Mary

Momentum, v10 n1 p13-16 Feb 1979

The author suggests that young people are slipping away from Catholicism because they have no sense of identity with it. She advocates instruction in church history to give secondary school students a sense of their "roots" in the church. Eight potential themes for such a course are outlined. (SJL)
