Guide for Liturgy Committees
Rev. Paul Turner and Michael R. Prendergast
The liturgy committee provides shape and vision for liturgies and
liturgical formation for members of the assembly. You'll want every member of
your liturgy committee or worship team to read this new guide. Effective
for training those new to the committee and for rejuvenating the work of
veterans, this book can be used by the entire group or by individual
members. It gives members of the committee the tools they need to pray,
study, and prepare the liturgy.
This book will be a valuable resource to
help all pray fully, actively, and consciously.
Inside you'll find a pastoral, inviting format and style, including:
- Scriptural reflection
- Pastoral theology of
liturgy, Eucharist, and Sunday Mass
- Basic understanding of
liturgical law and liturgical roles
- Historical roots of the
liturgy committee
- Guided spiritual reflections

life

reflection

how to serve on a liturgy committee
