The Fountain of Love: How Parents Form Children for Prayerful Participation in the Eucharist
by J. David Franks, PhD, and Angela Franks, PhD Theological Institute for the New Evangelization of Saint John’s Seminary, Boston
To be understood and loved. There is no deeper hunger and thirst in us, no deeper desire in children. What a privilege it is for a catechist to have a role in shaping the young for true love! But this depends above all on parents actively orchestrating a home life with a rhythm set by the “source and summit of the Christian life”—the Eucharist. The catechist should seek out opportunities to assist parents in this. It is our hope that the practical advice presented here will be helpful.
