Abstract
ABSTRACT: Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) is a method that integrates catechetical, intellectual, and theological approaches with experiential, embodied, and liturgical ways of learning and knowing. This article examines CGS through the lens of the 2020 Directory for Catechesis . This study seeks to demonstrate that CGS succeeds, especially through its liturgical elements and application of Montessori principles, at the Directory 's task of "initiating into the celebration of the mystery." By drawing from CGS's founders and from concrete examples of its approach, the article also argues that young children are capable of, and should be invited into, profound liturgical experience.
