Synopsis

Everything Needed to Understand and Appreciate the Traditional Latin Mass. Fr. George Moorman. 185 Pp. PB. Extremely informative, yet very easy to read! This book explains prayer by prayer, what happens at the Latin Mass and why. Why is the Mass in Latin, the use of silence, bells, specific colors, etc.---and how we participate. Reviews are very enthusiastic! Ties in beautifully with Pope Benedict XVI's motu proprio opening the door to the universal celebration of the Latin Mass.

This was a very interesting book. I have wanted to look into the latin mass for a while now and current events just pushed me to do it. I have been told that the latin mass is so different than the current mass celebrated by most Catholics but I just don't see it. It seems obviously more reverent in......more
