Pflaum Gospel Weeklies • 2026–2027

Meet the newly updated Pflaum Gospel Weeklies—thoughtfully revised to help children encounter Jesus through the Sunday Gospel in ways that are engaging, meaningful, and faithful.

With Student Lessons that bring Scripture to life, a Family Companion that nurtures faith at home and empowers parents as primary witnesses of the faith, and a Teacher’s Guide that supports every Teacher and Catechist, Pflaum Gospel Weeklies forms young disciples through one Gospel, shared by church, school, and family.

Discover a fresh approach to a timeless mission.

Student Lessons
Promise 25-26

Encounter the Gospel. Live the Faith.

The Student Lessons invite children to actively engage with the Word of God each week through:

  • 32 weekly lessons aligned with the Liturgical Year.
  • Hands-on activities that connect faith to real life.
  • Age-appropriate lessons and visuals that invite curiosity and reflection.
  • Clear connections between Scripture, Catholic teaching, and daily living.
  • Every lesson references the Family Companion Book to strengthen the vital link between parish, school, and home.

Each lesson is designed to help children not only hear the Gospel, but understand it, pray with it, and put it into action.

Pope Leo XIV

The first catechists are our parents, those who first spoke to us and taught us to speak. Just as we learned our mother tongue, so too the proclamation of faith cannot be delegated to others; it happens where we live, first of all, in our homes, around the family table. Where there is a voice, a gesture, a face that leads to Christ, the family experiences the beauty of the Gospel.”
