Celebrating the Rites: A Practical Guide serves directors, liturgical ministers, and pastors--who strive to meet the parish needs to prepare, celebrate, and reflect on the meaning of the rituals.

Handbooks for Inquirers, Sponsors, Catechists, and Neophytes, and a Handbook on Prayer provide helpful information and prayerful exercises for reflection.

Participant books (Years A, B, and C) help participants and team members as they break open the Word of God, share faith, learn Catholic doctrine and traditions, and experience prayer together.

The Remembrance Book is a perfect keepsake gift for candidates and catechumens.

The self-assessment tool assists parish teams, helping to improve the quality of implementation of the rite.
