Description
ABSTRACT: Systemic Catechesis is designed to merge several academic disciplines into a new
catechetical model. Learning theories, systemic psychology, and a distinctive Lutheran
approach to confirmation are combined in an effort to catechize whole family systems
while specifically targeting junior high youth. This multifaceted program utilizes class
time, home work, periodic evaluations, camps and retreats to maximize learning. The
results of this project is a two-year curriculum that fully integrates educators,
congregation, and the family into the catechetical process.
