What is it about?
Salt of the Earth is a group study published by the Caritas Singapore Community Council and Singapore Pastoral Institute (SPI). It covers the basic principles of the Church's social teaching such as the dignity of the human person, the common good, solidarity, care for creation and much more.
There are 12 sessions altogether in the study guide. Each session is designed to last about 1 hour 15 minutes. Your group can cover the sessions on a weekly, fortnightly or monthly basis, depending on your preferences. In each chapter, the group follows the readings, reflections, activities and prayers in the study guide.
All you need to do is send 1-2 group representatives to attend a briefing session on how to use this study guide and collect free copies for the whole group. Then your group can start using Salt of the Earth at your group meetings.
Who should attend?
The study guide is for everyone. It helps us to better understand what our faith teaches about building a better society and being ‘salt of the earth’. This study guide is to be used by groups such as Small Christian Communities, Catechists, Parish Pastoral Councils (PPC), RCIA sponsors, Social ministries like Society of St Vincent de Paul, Youth and Young Adults and any other ministries or prayer group.
How much does it cost?
Salt of the Earth is distributed free of charge to any group that is interested to learn about Catholic social teachings.
