Walking by Faith:
Music and Liturgies for Catechesis

David Haas, Robert Piercy

David Haas and Robert W. Piercy team up to create this outstanding, coordinated program of music, prayer services, and liturgies tied to the major themes of the new Catechism of the Catholic Church.

There's great music from David Haas, including 12 new songs and 9 of his best-loved, all re-recorded featuring both children's and adult voices and fresh arrangements--hymns, songs, psalms, canticles, and ritual music especially appropriate for children's voices.

Bob Piercy gives us 49 marvelous prayer services, each about 15 minutes long. Seven prayer services are tailored to each grade level, K-6, on the themes of creation, Jesus Christ, morality, church, sacraments, God, and salvation history. All the services are coordinated with the music and are carefully prepared according to the latest information available on the spiritual development of children.

In addition, Robert Piercy supplies five school-wide liturgies: opening of the school year, Advent, Lent, end of the school year, and a reconciliation service.

Perfect for all catechists, presiders, and liturgists, this curriculum-based music and liturgy program accompanies BROWN-ROA's new series Walking By Faith, a K-6 curriculum; however, the materials are invaluable for any catechetical program or young people's liturgy program.
