At this site, I'll be sharing updates about my booklet and the workshop it is based on, as I continue to teach in parishes around my own diocese and beyond. If you have a question or comment, please leave it here. I look forward to corresponding with you and learning from you as we share our journey as catechists.

I am very pleased and proud to tell you that In its first two-and-a-half weeks, the Our Sunday Visitor team sold out its first printing of my new booklet, "Be An Amazing Catechist," and are now taking back-orders while we await more copies from the printer. They should be available for shipping very soon.

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to my publishers and to the many DREs and catechists who have purchased the booklet so far. I pray with all my heart that it is of value to you in bringing the faith to life for your students, and that it helps draw you more deeply into the heart of Christ.

Thanks so much for stopping in!

Here's a little advertising:

"Be an Amazing Catechist" is a highly effective training program for the Catholic catechist. It is simple, engaging, and useful to catechists at every level of experience using any curriculum. You might not need every idea in this book, but you will find within it valuable tools for making your catechetical ministry more vibrant, more exciting, and more effective. At only $2.95 a copy and $17.95 for ten copies, this 32-page booklet is packed with insight, information and inspiration for the novice, the veteran and those considering answering the call to volunteer as catechists. This publication has also been awarded the Catholic Writers' Guild Seal of Approval.

“This ‘little’ book packs a big punch and should be required reading for all those who teach the Catholic Faith! Lisa Mladinich has artfully combined information, insight and instruction into the perfect tool for Catechists.”
