Welcome the word. Vol. 2 Sundays of ordinary time and the solemnity of Christ the king - Joan Brown

This volume offers many practical ideas on how the shape, style and form of the celebration of the Liturgy of the Word at Mass can be accommodated to children. The second of two volumes, the text provides resources for all Sundays of Ordinary time and the Solemnity of Christ the King. A theme is proposed for each celebration, which is developed by a range of appropriate activities. The children are involved in making banners and posters, catachesis, songs and prayers, all leading to the proclamation of the Gospel.;A simplified Gospel text (not a paraphrase) is offered for liturgical proclamation. The intention of this book is to make the Liturgy of the Word attractive, lively, enjoyable and meaningful for children. In the new edition, Gospel acclamations can be sung to well-known children's tunes. Each celebration includes a way to share with the community, and the book includes links with the "Catechism of the Catholic Church" to give background understanding of the Gospels.
