I'm using this product in a number of different settings, as a text for a youth group I am running on the New Roman Missal, in classrooms with teachers and as a resource for RCIA candidates. Really you are only limited by your imagination with this book as it walks through step by step through the text of the New Roman Missal and then it has colour coordinated descriptions for each of the changes as well as explanations for why we do what we do and the meaning behind that particular part of the mass. Its a great resource and its made it on to my all time favourite resource list! |
