United States Catholic Catechism for Adults

By United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. The United States Catholic Catechism for adults is an adaptation of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. The text follows the Catechism's arrangement of the content: The Creed, The Sacraments, Moral Life and Prayer. (Latin and Eastern Churches included)

The structure of each chapter is:
1. Story or lesson of faith
2. Teaching: Its foundation and application
3. Sidebars
4. Relationship of Catholic teaching to the Culture
5. Questions for discussion
6. Doctrinal Statements
7. Meditation and Prayer

The presence of the Catholic Church in the United States reaches back to the founding days of our country through the leadership of Archbishop John Carroll, the first Catholic bishop in the United States. His story, like other stories at the start of the chapters in the United States Catholic Catechism for Adults, gives us a glimpse into the lives of Catholics who lived out their faith throughout our country's history.
