The celebration of the Liturgy of the Word with children is a liturgical experience that opens young people to hear and respond to God’s Word in ways that enable them to be nurtured and challenged by its power, and to experience the grace of ongoing conversion to the vision and values of the Word of God. Children's Liturgy of the Word 2024–2025 enables prayer leaders to confidently lead children through the Liturgy of the Word. Each liturgy guide offers: An overview of the season. Weekly guides for leading and preparing the liturgy. Suggestions for the liturgical environment. Weekly Scripture citations and commentary on all three readings and the responsorial psalm. Weekly Scriptural connections to Church teaching and tradition. Weekly reflections for the children's Liturgy of the Word. The liturgy guides will enable prayer leaders to facilitate the Liturgy of the Word with children in a prayerful way, allowing each child to deepen and explore his or her relationship with God.

This resource provides invaluable commentary on the Lectionary readings for Year B (including the Responsorial Psalm) for Sundays, Holy Days of Obligation, and feasts and solemnities that may occur on a Sunday. Written in a pastoral tone, it offers historical-critical background on each of the readings and underscores their relevance to life today. Thematically related quotations from major Church documents are included with each Scripture background to provide context and connections to Church teaching. Organized by the liturgical calendar, each season of readings begins with an overview of the season and a brief look at where the readings come from and any unifying messages or themes present throughout the selected readings. Scripture Backgrounds for the Sunday Lectionary, Year B is written by a team of writers with a broad range of theological, pastoral, and catechetical experience. Their reflections offer homilists a solid foundation from which to begin the process of preparing to speak the Word of God to their assemblies.

Recently published as Foundations for Preaching and Teaching, this resource is a compilation of Scripture backgrounds for Year A. It provides commentary for every Sunday and Holyday, feast and solemnity that may supersede a Sunday.

With its smaller format making it easy to carry, this daily reflection book is the perfect complement to "The Catholic Youth Bible." Readings are chosen from cycle A, B, or C, or are the exact reading for feast days or solemnities. Each day has a Scripture citation, a reflection, a short prayer, and a connection to an article in "The Catholic Youth Bible. Take Ten" helps young people apply biblical wisdom to their everyday lives.St. Mary's Press
