New Missal Mania

After months of talking about it, preparing for it, and educating our families about it, we finally welcomed the Roman Missal Third Edition this past weekend at my local parish.

Here’s an embarrassment of riches.
Literal embarrassment in my case, since in my post about daily missal use below, I should have highlighted Living With Christ, published by the same folks who bring you this very site.
Living with Christ is a monthly missalette published all around the world by Bayard, Inc, which also publishes Faith & Family magazine.
At this link you can watch an introductory video, download a sample, or sign up for morning prayer delivered daily to your mailbox.

New Missal Resource for Catholic Kids
Posted by Danielle Bean in Faith on Monday, August 29, 2011
Have you read Daria’s article about the upcoming changes to the language we use in the Mass? If you read all the way to the end, you will see that we grown ups have many resources for learning more about these changes and preparing for them.
But how can we best prepare our children for changes in the Mass? A great book to use is The Mass Explained for Kids (scroll down), upcoming from Pauline Books.... READ MORE
