Joy, Joy the Mass: Our Family Celebration

Takes children through the whole Mass step by step, explaining each part in a simple and inviting way.

For classroom or home use, this book helps children understand why the Church does what it does. Each page introduces one simple idea, illustrated by a line drawing that children can color, and always leaving room for children to participate by filling in the blanks or offering their own ideas.

Extensive notes for parents and teachers explain the object of each page, suggesting ways to go beyond the lesson and integrate the ideas into the children's own thinking.
