If every parish did this program, we’d see a true revolution in the Church. 
The Great Adventure has been a genuine blessing from God to the Diocese of Duluth... I cannot recommend it any more highly. It has been a great gift from God to me and the diocese I serve. 
I consider The Great Adventure to be one of the most important contributions I have made to the parish, a legacy I leave my successor after my retirement soon 
Teens in our parish are on fire because of The Teen Timeline. It has inspired our youth to attend Mass regularly and get excited about their Faith. 
The canonical approach that The Great Adventure employs is a marvelous way to introduce the faithful to salvation history. When Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the Magisterium are all brought together in study the result is a clearer picture of God’s will, resulting in a road map for living.
