Catechetical Textbooks

All catechetical textbooks used by parishes in the Diocese of Knoxville are required to be on the USCCB Conformity Listing. The updated list can be found here.

The Declaration of Conformity ensures that a particular catechetical textbook or series is in conformity with the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the “authentic reference text” and “sure norm for teaching the faith.”
