The newest addition to our hardbound publications! Sewn pages & gold embossed cover!
Parts I & II. For the Sundays, Holydays, and Festivals Throughout the Ecclesiastical Year to which are added the Lives of the Saints.
By Leonard Goffiné.
Translated from the German edition of Rev. George Ott by Very Rev. Gerard M. Pilz, O.S.B. With many approbations of the Most Rev. Archbishops and Bishops of the united States.
It would be difficult to find a book more suitable for the laity, imparting fuller instruction in faith and morals, or giving more lucid explanations of the ceremonies which the Church employs throughout the Ecclesiastical year. It is no surprise that this Catholic treasure has been warmly recommended over time by many bishops and priests since it first appeared in 1880 to strengthen the Catholic faith, propagate true Christian morality and lead to a better comprehension of the Ecclesiastical year. The Epistle and Gospel for each Sunday or Holyday is fully explained, complete with scriptural references; finally there is a short sermon that relates to the Gospel of the day. Replete with inspirational line drawings, which have been removed by most other publishers.
Fr. Goffine offers a short, insightful, and enriching instructions on the Gospel and the Epistles. Excellent guide for those who attend the Traditional Latin Mass. A must have for those who want to understand the liturgical calendar better.
962 pages, Imprimatur 1918.
“I have been reading this book for over 10 years and have gained scriptural insight that has helped shine clarity on the Gospels. I never tire of reading it!” -Anthony Michna, Co-Founder MOS, Inc. 1975.
