Living Holy Mass. A Mystery of Love and Healing

Mass is the most important moment of encounter with the Lord in the life of every Christian. Yet it can happen that our participation in Mass begins with habitual gestures performed superficially. This book is a simple, practical “manual” that explains the various parts of the Mass, examining the details of its gestures, words, and meanings: Why do we make the sign of the cross with holy water when entering the church? Why do we sing the Alleluia and stand during the Gospel? What is the meaning of the sign of peace? What is offered, besides a few coins, at the offertory? What is the meaning of the Our Father? This book answers these and other questions, helping each person to experience more fully the great mystery of love and healing that is the Holy Mass.
