The Sower Review
Current Issue of The SowerWelcome to The Sower Review, the official website of The Sower quarterly periodical that forms catechists and catechetical leaders. The founder of The Sower, English theologian Canon Francis Drinkwater, believed that:
We educate to some extent by what we say,
Even more by what we do,
And even more than that, by who we are.
But we educate most of all by what we love.
That is what goes on after we die.

In short, we cannot effectively teach the faith unless we live and love our faith. This charism given to Canon Drinkwater in 1919, lives on in the work of The Sower, whose goal is to help catechists deepen their understanding of and love for the teachings of Christ, as handed on through his Church yesterday, today and always.
