When you’re working with young people who have special developmental needs, finding the right resource is important—and can be challenging. The Gospel Weeklies are a favorite resource of many catechists and teachers who work to bring the Good News to children with special needs. Andrea West from the Diocese of Orange (CA) is a master catechist who loves using the Gospel Weeklies for this purpose. Find video of a recent webinar at which she presented some ideas about doing so through virtual learning sessions. Andrea’s ideas will be helpful to those catechists, teachers, and parents who are working with children in person as well. The video includes a translation of Andrea’s main ideas into Spanish. Make sure you also refer to our pacing plan information about using the Gospel Weeklies with these very special students.
