    Catechesis is a responsibility of the entire Christian community. This is should not be the work of catechists and priests alone, but of the whole community of the faithful. The Christian community follows the development of catechetical processes, for children, young people and adults, as a duty that involves and binds it directly. (GDC 220) A fully Christian community can exist only when a systematic catechesis of all its members takes place and when an effective and well developed catechesis of adults is regarded as the central task of the catechetical enterprise.” (ACCC, no. 25).

    La catequesis es responsabilidad de toda la comunidad cristiana. Esta no debe ser obra únicamente de catequistas y sacerdotes, sino de toda la comunidad de fieles. La comunidad cristiana sigue el desarrollo de los procesos catequéticos, para niños, jóvenes y adultos, como un deber que la involucra y la vincula directamente. (DGC 220) Una comunidad plenamente cristiana sólo puede existir cuando se lleva a cabo una catequesis sistemática de todos sus miembros y cuando una catequesis de adultos eficaz y bien desarrollada se considera la tarea central de la empresa catequética ". (ACCC, no. 25).
