DOCAT the Do of the YOU is now in Flexi Cover, with a ribbon and set in the idiom of the Australian and New Zealand vernacular.

DOCAT is a popular adaptation of the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, a summary of the Social Teachings of the Church: “DO” comes from the verb to do whereas “CAT” stands for Catechism.

Apart from the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, insights from the two social encyclicals of Benedict XVI (Deus Caritas Est and Caritas in Veritate) and the encyclical of Pope Francis (Laudato Si’) have been incorporated in this Youth-friendly Catechism.  The DOCAT has been published by the Austrian Bishops’ Conference and approved by the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelisation, and now the Australian Edition has an Imprimatur from the Vicar General of the Archdiocese of Melbourne.
