One of 101 titles in the St. Joseph Picture Book Series, this book by popular author Rev. Jude Winkler, OFM. Conv. provides children with simple explanations of the order of the Mass and its meaning. The Catholic Mass is a very special celebration where we come together to worship God, learn from His word, and receive Jesus in the Eucharist. The Mass helps us grow closer to God and reminds us of His great love for us. It is a time to gather with our church family to pray, sing, and thank God for all His blessings. The Mass has two main parts: the Liturgy of the Word and the Liturgy of the Eucharist. In the Liturgy of the Word, we listen to Bible readings and hear stories about Jesus, the Apostles, and other people of faith. Then the priest gives a homily, helping us understand God''s message and how to live our faith every day. In the Liturgy of the Eucharist, we remember the Last Supper, when Jesus shared bread and wine with His disciples. The priest prays over the bread and wine, and through a miracle called transubstantiation, they become the Body and Blood of Jesus. When we receive Jesus in Holy Communion, we are united with Him in a special way, filling our hearts with His love and strength. At the end of Mass, we are sent out to share God''s love with others through our actions. The Mass is a gift that brings us closer to God and reminds us to love and serve others just as Jesus did. By coming to Mass, we are part of a wonderful community that celebrates and lives out God''s love together.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The poor will always be with you, Jesus said - but that doesn't mean Christians have ever figured out how to be with the poor. Pope Francis has emphasized a vision of a Church that is poor and for the poor. But growing economic inequality continues to spread across the globe. This book takes a fresh look at the role of churches, and individual Christians, in relating to poverty and the poor among them. A strong focus is placed on the biblical and theological roots of the Church's commitment to care for the poor. At times praised as a virtue and blessed as a condition, poverty easily confuses us, and we are often left doing little to nothing to make a difference with and for the poor. As a social evil and a burden, poverty has elicited many kinds of reactions among the followers of Christ. It is time for Christians to figure out what to do about it. Contributors include Pope Francis, Pheme Perkins, Sandra M. Schneider, and Thomas Massaro SJ.…

Hardback. Zustand: Fair. Invitation to a Dance The Trinity is supposed to be the central, foundational doctrine of our entire Christian belief system, yet we're often told that we shouldn't attempt to understand it because it is a mystery. Should we presume to try to breach this mystery? If we could, how would it transform our relationship with God and renew our lives? The word Trinity is not found in the New Testament--it wasn't until the third century that early Christian father Tertullian coined it--but the idea of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit was present in Jesus' life and teachings and from the very beginning of the Christian experience. In the pages of this book, internationally recognized teacher Richard Rohr circles around this most paradoxical idea as he explores the nature of God--circling around being an apt metaphor for this mystery we're trying to apprehend. Early Christians who came to be known as the Desert Mothers and Fathers applied the Greek verb perichoresis to the mystery of the Trinity. The best translation of this odd-sounding word is dancing. Our word choreography comes from the same root. Although these early Christians gave us some highly conceptualized thinking on the life of the Trinity, the best they could say, again and again, was, Whatever is going on in God is a flow--it's like a dance. But God is not a dancer--He is the dance itself. That idea might sound novel, but it is about as traditional as you can get. God is the dance itself, and He invites you to be a part of that dance. Are you ready to join in.…
