Sunday Celebrations in the Absence of a Priest, Revised Edition (A Pastoral Liturgical Commentary)

In November 2003, after a two-year review, the U.S. bishops revised the ritual for Sunday celebrations when no priest is available to celebrate Mass. This new commentary, thoroughly revised by Michael R. Prendergast, incorporates the changes in the revised ritual.

A thought-provoking study of the theological and pastoral issues involved in such celebrations, it's an essential resource for parish liturgy committees and liturgy planners. Prendergast was a member the task group established by the Bishops' Committee on the Liturgy to revise the ritual.
