About these resources

I created CristoPress as a Catholic layman to make the biblical roots of the faith easier to find, study and explain. These resources connect Scripture references with related paragraphs of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. The reference sheets use RSV-2CE verse numbering. The study notes are summaries, not Bible quotations; read each passage in context. CristoPress is an independent publisher of Catholic study resources. I welcome corrections supported by sources.

For questions about parish or classroom copying, contact me. contact@cristopress.com

US Letter, landscape, actual size (100%). Print on both sides and flip on the short edge. Check one paper proof before printing a batch.

Using A4? Choose Fit to page. The maximum scale is about 97%; your printer’s margins may reduce it further. At 100%, the page is 5.9 mm taller than landscape A4, so check for clipping. Print one proof first.
