What Happens at Mass
From the Chancery
Studying the Liturgy
In light of the recent document on the liturgy, Desiderio Desideravi, we recommend that you encourage people to learn more about the Mass. We recommend the General Instruction on the Roman Missal, and other liturgical books. "What Happens at Mass" by Abbot Jeremy Driscoll is very approachable.

Saints
