New Evangelisation Website For Children
www.yfaith.co.uk is a new Catholic website which aims to provide a home-based support to parents and others responsible for the faith formation of children and young people. Its target age group is 10 – 13 year olds who have questions to ask and want to learn more about their journey of faith. As such it features more than 20 interactive pages covering music and film, ‘Girls Only’ and ‘Boys Only’ sections, book reviews, the Bible and a questions area. It is designed to enable “tweenagers” to engage with, explore and express their Catholic Faith. It has been created by the Catholic Agency To Support Evangelisation (CASE), which is an agency of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales. For general information please see: www.caseresources.org.uk Please do tell people about it and play your part in supporting our future Catholic evangelists.
