The Catholic Message Board

My oldest granddaughter is entering 7th grade at her local Catholic school this fall and as such, her school supply list has a "Catholic Youth Bible" listed as one of the items that she will need. She has enlisted the help of "Deacon Poppy" to find a good one for her. She is a very bright young girl and a very good reader. I would welcome any suggestions from the group on a good Catholic Youth Study Bible. Thanks Everyone!!

Great Adventure Catholic Bible is popular in our youth gift shop

This one is also so soft, the embossed rosary is nice

Fireside used to do the same Bible with a white and pink cover, you could likely find it used.

There is also the Didache Bible, available in both the RSV and NABRE editions. Although the NABRE is scheduled to be replaced next year with a new edition which might not be named “New America Bible”

Are you sure they don't mean this?

It's what my kids have had to use.

The main selling point for the Didache is that the text has the associated paragraph numbers from the CCC.

We didn't have a choice. The school wanted everyone with the exact same thing (which makes sense when you are learning in a group environment).

That's a good point Zeno....looks like I need to make a phone call...
