Description

"Living the Mass is a rich and resonant meditation on the Eucharist that will deepen the liturgy for those on both sides of the altar." —Andrew Greeley "We Catholics don't go to Mass; we go back to Mass—from having been 'sent forth' the last time! Grassi and Paprocki explain why, how, and where in this important new book." —Gregory F. A. Pierce, author of Spirituality at Work The concluding prayer of the Mass is a command: Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. We are charged to go forth and quite literally transform our families, our communities, and our world through the redeeming sacrifice of Christ as celebrated in the Mass. Fr. Dominic Grassi and Joe Paprocki use this challenge as the starting point for their inspiring and illuminating look at the central act of Catholic worship. They ask, What would our faith look like if we truly understood the gift of the Eucharist? Living the Mass will stir a new passion for and a greater understanding of this sacred two-thousand-year-old celebration offered freely to all who come, to all who believe.
