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.
