"This issue is devoted to a study of the function of catechetics, or religious education. The subject will be seen and treated from the viewpoint of its specific function within the Church's pastoral effort as a whole, and we shall want to see to what extent it meets the requirements of the times. Our primary object is to form a clearer picture of the structure catechetical praxis should have today." [Introduction]
