Prayers and Ceremonies of the Holy Mass by Dom Prosper Guéranger 

Have you ever wondered...

• Why does the priest kiss the Altar at Mass?

• Why does he pray the Canon in silence?

• Why are the Epistle and the Gospel read at opposite sides of the Altar?

• What is the meaning of ad orientem?

• Why are the Ite Missa est and the Blessing not given at a Requiem Mass?

KNOW YOUR MASS.  Textbook from the 1950's

An illustrated manual of instruction for Catholics young and old; a step-by-step explanation of the Traditional Latin Mass; the Holy Sacrifice as the re-enactment of Calvary.

This 100-page book is an excellent catechetical tool for teaching the Traditional Latin Mass. Ideal for parents to instruct their children on the old Mass and the wealth of Catholic Traditions. It stresses the importance of reverence, and presents  the theology of the Mass in a way easily understood by children preparing for First Holy Communion. It is also instructive and informative for older students, young adults, teachers, parents, and grandparents.

With a wealth of diagrams and pictures in cartoon format, the book clearly explains the various  parts of the Mass; preparation of the altar; the history and purpose of the prayers, gestures, vestments and sacred  vessels. This text, with a 1954 Imprimatur from Francis Cardinal Spellman, then Archbishop of New York, was used extensively in Catholic schools during the 1950s.
