Product Description
Subtitle: Its Rituals, Roots and Relevance in Our Lives
Author: Joan Carter McHugh. 256 pg. PB.
This book will forever change the way you experience Mass! Joan Carter McHugh takes you on a guided tour of the Mass, stopping at each rite to explore its history and meaning in our lives. Her detailed research, combined with stories from the lives of the saints, as well as her personal healing testimony, will usher you into a divine dimension of reality where you will encounter the presence of the Risen Lord, His arms outstretched in an embrace of love from the altar of the Cross. There, in the heart of the Paschal Mystery, is where life happens, where the power of Christ’s presence reaches into our bodies and souls — to heal, transform, and make us whole.
"This book is a great gift to the Church!" - Francis Cardinal George, OMI, Archbishop of Chicago
"Please take time to read this book. Rarely does such a reflection emerge that can find a place on one’s night stand, the podium in a classroom, the lecture hall of a seminary or the centerpiece of a small group discussion." — Fr. Jeremiah Boland, Archbishop’s Delegate for Externs and International Priests, Archdiocese of Chicago
