Vjerujem: Mali katolički katekizam

"I Believe: A Small Catholic Catechism" (originally titled Je crois), authored by Eleonora Beck, is one of the most renowned and widely distributed catechetical works designed for the religious education of children, young people, and catechumens. The book is conceived as a visually and conceptually accessible guide to the fundamental truths of the Christian faith, created to help young readers and families understand and live out Catholic teaching. The catechism’s content is structured around the Apostles' Creed, gradually introducing the reader to the mystery of the Trinity, Creation, the life, Passion, and Resurrection of Jesus, and the roles of the Holy Spirit and the Church. Additionally, the book explains the seven sacraments, the fundamental principles of Christian morality, and the life of prayer. The author combines simple yet theologically accurate language with rich illustrations and biblical quotations, making abstract religious concepts relatable to the everyday experiences of children. The work has seen numerous editions and translations worldwide (often published by the international humanitarian organization Kirche in Not / Aid to the Church in Need), becoming an indispensable resource for family catechesis and parish preparation for First Holy Communion and Confirmation.
