An Introduction to the Liturgical Year
Text by Inos Biffi and illustrations by Franco Vignazi.
A beautifully illustrated overview of the Church's liturgical year,
starting with Advent and ending with the last Sunday in Ordinary Time,
the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ the King. The text features
explanations of all the celebrations with their scriptural
underpinnings. The richly-hued art, by Franco Vignazio, the artist for
the 2010 Year of Grace calendars, manages to combine a medieval style
with a modern sensibility.
An Introduction to the Liturgical Year explains how each liturgical
season reveals a specific aspect of Christ's saving work and describes
how the church commemorates these important events through the
celebration of the liturgical seasons. With every page, vivid artwork
and engaging text will illuminate the Paschal Mystery and will increase
the understanding of all readers--child, convert, catechists, or parent.
A great gift idea for school and church libraries, this resource is
also a great supplemental text for religious education programs.
