Originally published in 1992, followed by a new edition in 1997, the Catechism of the Catholic Church is arranged in four parts: "The Profession of Faith"; "The Celebration of the Christian Mystery" ; "Life in Christ"; and "Christian Prayer." The Catechism of the Catholic Church is meant to help facilitate the lifelong conversion of the whole person to the Father's call to holiness and eternal life. Users of the Catechism are called to witness Christ, the Church, and God's Kingdom of salvation, love, justice, mercy and peace in the world.
