"More and more people are affirming that congregations have tremendous potential for helping young people grow up healthy, principled, and caring."

"Effective catechesis with youth requires that the adult members of our community grow cntinually in their faith and in their faith and in their abilityh to share it with others. This growth is especially necessary for the parents of adolescents. We cannot expect more of youth than we do adults. The ways we adults learn about, express, and live our faith is a vigorous support or a serious obstacle in effectively catechizing youth."
"The Challenge of Adolescent Catechesis", National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry
"Adolescents need to experience the Catholic faith at home and participate in the Lord's mission with their families."
