WASHINGTON (CNS) -- The U.S. bishops' Committee on Catechesis has begun work on four projects to benefit the American church, said its chairman, Archbishop Daniel M. Buechlein of Indianapolis. Areas to be covered in the committee's work are education in human sexuality, the education and formation of catechists and catechetical leadership, the development of doctrinal guidelines for high school-level catechetical instruction, and a project to outline key doctrinal elements in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. Archbishop Buechlein made his remarks Nov. 10 during a presentation at the fall general meeting of the U.S. bishops in Washington.
