Working together to evangelise
The Catholic Truth Society is a unique Catholic Charity publishing non-stop since 1868.
CTS has always been supported by those who care deeply about sharing the Catholic faith with their fellow men and women - and believe that this is one of the most urgent tasks in today's world.
Charitable aims
What is perhaps less well known about the CTS is that it is also a charity with an apostolic mission to promote the Catholic faith. We are committed to enabling people in all situations to find out more about the Catholic faith, to help them grow in their spiritual lives and to respond to challenges to their beliefs. We also provide educational opportunities to young people and seek to give hope to those who may feel far from God.
This year, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the publication of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, CTS is raising funds to give away copies of the Youth Catechism of the Catholic Church (YouCat) to university students in the UK. In previous years, we have sponsored:
- Bibles for prisoners and schools
- The Compendium of the Catechism for schools
- Prisoners requesting bibles or other literature
- RCIA candidates requesting simplified information
- People in mission territories
- The financially disadvantaged
