in Words and Pictures 

This cartoon series is being produced in nine parts. Each part forms a natural grouping of Gospel stories, ideal for personal reading and for use in parish newsletters, in university chaplaincy groups, prisons, youth service, children's liturgy, schools, with the housebound and the hard-of-hearing. We are sure you will think of other uses!

The Wedding Feast of Cana

FORMAT

Jesus, Son of God, Son of Mary is now being produced both as books and CD-ROMs. The books are slim A4 paperback volumes, a joy to handle and read. The CDs are aimed at groups, with the pages presented as PDFs, easy to print and to include in newsletters, and as PowerPoint files, perfect for narrations and dramatic presentations using a digital projector.

WHO IS IT FOR?

The cartoon is aimed at adults and young people rather than the very young. The text may be read and reflected upon by individuals but its prime purpose is to be read aloud and discussed, dramatised in groups and in Masses, thrown wide open for debate. Most importantly, its purpose is to inspire us by helping us to get to know Jesus as a human being like ourselves and by making that vital link between how we live our lives today and the message of the Gospels.

The CDs are aimed at groups such as parishes, schools, prisons, and more. The price of each part is £85. When you order from us, we ask you to state which group (e.g. school or parish) you will be purchasing the copyright for. You will have the right to reproduce the work freely within your nominated group. If people outside your group become interested, do encourage them to contact us. As we are now publishing the work in book form as well, we are discontinuing the CDs priced for individuals.
