Origins Of The Eucharistic Prayer

Enrico Mazza is professor of liturgical history at the Universit… Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan. He is the author of Mystagogy: A Theology of Liturgy in the Patristic Ages and Eucharistic Prayers of the Roman Rite.

Psalter For The Christian People
$24.95Add to cartThe increasing desire among Christians to pray in inclusive language has resulted in the publication of this inclusive language psalter.

Techniques for changing all the non-inclusive language to inclusive language were carefully wrought and judiciously applied, in keeping with common sense, biblical scholarship, and the ancient Hebrew liturgical principle that holds in high respect the majesty of God’s name.
Every effort has been made to render the lines in a flowing, euphonious manner, well phrased for chanting. Since different communions practice variant methods of chanting, this volume includes an essay which offers instruction in four methods of pointing these psalms.
