Inhaltsangabe

The Mass—the central act of Catholic worship—can be a richer experience for everyone, as shown in these popular essays written by the most accomplished liturgists in the country. The contributors examine the roles of all the people involved in the Mass—the congregation, presider, deacons, lectors, musicians, eucharistic ministers, ministers of hospitality—and offer a wealth of practical advice to deepen Catholics’ appreciation of the Mass. The articles in Celebrating Good Liturgy are written in an accessible, popular style. They were originally published in America magazine as one of the most popular series in the magazine’s history. They will prove helpful to everyone involved in the Mass—especially those many Catholics who regularly celebrate it.

 

“There is terrific wisdom, common sense, and practical information in this collection of brief essays. Priests and deacons should read it; members of parish liturgy committees should read it; and above all, ‘the folks in the pews’ should read it.”—Mitch Finley, author of The Seeker’s Guide to Being Catholic

“A rich—and immediately useful—collection of ways to engage the assembly at Mass and deepen our understanding of this most important hour each week.”—Paul Wilkes, author of Excellent Catholic Parishes: The Guide to Best Places and Practices and The 7 Secrets of Successful Catholics
