Sourcebook for Sundays, Seasons, and Weekdays: The Almanac for Pastoral Liturgy by LTP is the essential and trusted resource to help you prepare the liturgy for all seasons of the liturgical year, each Sunday, solemnity, feast, memorial, optional memorial, and seasonal weekday. If you are a priest or deacon, liturgist or worship team member, religious educator or looking for more information about Catholic liturgy, this publication will be an invaluable tool.
This 2018 Sourcebook for Sundays, Seasons, and Weekdays is for the Liturgical Year. It begins with the First Sunday of Advent, and continues through the last day of Ordinary Time.
Sourcebook for Sundays, Seasons, and Weekdays: The Almanac for Pastoral Liturgy is organized in two user-friendly sections: The Season and The Calendar.
The Season section of the Sourcebook explores the meaning of the season, the saints who are honored, the liturgical books, the liturgical environment, the liturgical music, and how to bring the liturgy into your homes.
The Calendar section of the Sourcebook is a straightforward almanac and the only resource which consistently provides pastoral reflections and ideas for each day of the liturgical year. You can look up any day of the liturgical year and find basic liturgical information as well as ideas for how to celebrate the liturgy.
There are multiple authors for this year’s edition of Sourcebook. Each author brings a wealth of pastoral experience and liturgical expertise to their sections. Well-known authors are included.
This book also includes:
- Reflections on the Gospel for Year B
- How to celebrate the liturgy in Catholic schools
- Ways to bring the liturgy into your home
- Abbreviations for Church documents
