Throwing your books from Cathechism away

[Chrystal]

Sorry if this is in the wrong thread, but I just wanted to know if it is wrong to throw away your workbooks that you used when you went to Sunday school? I never thew mine away, but the other day I was thinking about how I don’t need them, so I was just curious. I don’t really want to get rid of them, and also I would feel really strange if I did, as if I did something sinful. In the event if someone did, however, is it wrong??

They are not sacramentals so you can recycle them if you wish.

This is correct, they’re just books. If they’re workbooks that you filled in, I’d throw them out; if they’re textbooks or other things that are in good shape, you might give them back to be distributed to someone else who can’t afford them.

Don’t throw them out. Like I said, recycle

I just thought I’d add that if the notebooks contain your written responses that you wouldn’t want others to read, then shredding them would be best–they can still be recycled if shredded.
