The homilies and catechesis are presented as a unit. The format
is “Kerygmatic” i.e. Jesus who was crucified, died and buried,
is alive, in our midst. This is the apostolic proclamation of
the Risen Lord, the foundation of our faith, which we celebrate
every Sunday and in every Eucharist. The catechesis is based on
the Sunday Readings and the Gospel, viz. a ‘lectionary-based
catechesis.’
The courses and details of this catechesis for the children,
adolescents and RCIA, are provided in special folders by the
coordinators of the parish at St. Mary’s Church,
Pietermaritzburg. The approach is based on the whole TRADITION
of the Church, viz. Scripture, Liturgy, Doctrine and Witness.
Witnessing here includes expediting the teachings of the Church,
especially with regards to its mission and evangelization. Other
aspects of the catechesis include ‘Life experience’, ‘Stories’
and academic research.
