 The
Complete Children's Liturgy Book: Liturgies of the World for
Years A, B, C
This is one of the most used books in my library. This comprehensive
book contains complete liturgies of the word for all three
liturgical years, cycles A, B and C organized according to
the liturgical calendar. The book's wonderful introduction
gives a great overview of the nature and function of the Liturgy
of the Word for children and describes the order used in the
book. For each Sunday, the following items are included:
Introduction, Sign of the Cross, Lighting of the Candles,
"Sorry", Gloria, Gospel Acclamation, Gospel reading,
Discussion, Activity, Creed and Closing Prayer. The bonus
feature of the book is a great illustration/activity that
can be reproduced each week. These activities are more than
just coloring pages. Many are crafts, activities, paper dolls,
worksheets and much more. I would recommend that this
book be used not only by catechists, but also by parents looking
to make the Sunday Liturgy of the Word truly come alive in
their own homes. I refer to this reference frequently. You'll
be happy that you invested in this resource for your students
and for your own family!
