Catechism of the Catholic Church (Compact Edition)

The Catechism of the Catholic Church draws on the Bible, the Mass, the sacraments, Church Tradition and teaching, and the lives of the saints. It is divided into four sections, explaining Catholic belief, liturgy, the moral life, and prayer. Revised according to the text promulgated by Pope John Paul II in 1997, it provides a complete summary of what Catholics throughout the world believe in common.

This convenient compact version of the Catechism includes a handy subject index that makes it perfect for educational use.
