Kevin Sharp, Director CCCB Publications This symbol indicates texts that we import from Liturgy Training Publications, based in Chicago, Illinois. Because LTP s titles originate in the US, they inform and employ American Liturgy standards, which differ from Canadian standards. We have done our best to include only those titles that can be used with confidence in a Canadian environment. That said, please be mindful of potential differences. LTP s mission statement is to promote the liturgical formation of the faithful and also their active participation in the liturgy both internally and externally, taking into account their age and condition, their way of life, and their stage of religious development so all the faithful may become thoroughly imbued with the spirit and power of the liturgy.

18 12 FIRST SUNDAY OF ADVENT YEAR B 1 SECOND SUNDAY OF ADVENT YEAR B 13 Liturgy Resources Book of Gospels Book of Gospels After years in the making, the Catholic Church in Canada is pleased to have a Canadian edition of the Book of Gospels. Our Book of Gospels contains all of the NRSV Gospel passages from the Lectionary: Sundays and Solemnities and the Lectionary: Ritual Masses, Masses for Various Needs and Occasions, Votive Masses and Masses for the Dead. Hence it contains all the Gospels for Sundays, Solemnities, Major Feasts, special celebrations particular to Canada (such as Thanksgiving or Remembrance Day), all of the Sacraments as well as those for Funeral Liturgies. Recognizing that churches vary considerably in size, two convenient sizes of the Book of Gospels have been published. For those with limited space on the Ambo, the Ambo edition is the exact same height and width as the Sunday and Ritual Lectionaries (Ambo editions). For better visibility and prominence in a larger space, the large format edition is ideal for larger churches. The use of the Book of Gospels is an integral part of the liturgy which is evident in the General Instruction of the Roman Missal. GIRM no. 60 states, The reading of the Gospel constitutes the high point of the Liturgy of the Word. The Liturgy itself teaches the great reverence that is to be shown to this reading by setting it off from the other readings with special marks of honour, by the fact of which minister is appointed to proclaim it and by the blessing or prayer with which he prepares himself; and also by the fact that through their acclamations the faithful acknowledge and confess that Christ is present and is speaking to them and stand as they listen to the reading; and by the mere fact of the marks of reverence that are given to the Book of Gospels. GIRM no. 349 states, Special care must be taken to ensure that the liturgical books, particularly the Book of Gospels and the Lectionary, which are intended for the proclamation of the Word of God and hence receive special veneration, are to be in a liturgical action truly signs and symbols of higher realities and hence should be truly worthy, dignified, and beautiful. The Introduction of the Book of Gospels mandated by the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments notes in no. 7, the Book of Gospels as a sign of the presence of Christ in his word proclaimed is always accorded a place of honour in the Church s liturgy.

RITUAL MASSES Jesus said to his disciples: 33 Beware, keep alert; for you do not know when the time will come. 34 It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his slaves in charge, each with a particular task, and commands the doorkeeper to be on the watch. 35 Therefore, keep awake for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or at dawn, 36 or else he may find you asleep when he comes suddenly. 37 And what I say to you I say to all: Keep awake. The Gospel of the Lord. The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. 2 As it is written in the Prophet Isaiah, See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way; 3 the voice of one crying out in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight, 4 John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 And people from the whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem were going out to him, and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. 6 Now John was clothed with camel s hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 He proclaimed, The one who is more powerful than I is coming after me; I am not worthy to stoop down and untie the thong of his sandals. 8 I have baptized you with water; SACRAMENTS OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.

He acted very well and honourably, taking account of the resurrection. A reading from the second book of Maccabees $ Maccabees Judas Maccabeus took up a collection, man by man, to the amount of two thousand drachmas of silver, and sent it to Jerusalem to provide for a sin offering. In doing this he acted very well and honourably, taking account of the resurrection. For if he were not expecting that those who had fallen would rise again, it would have been superfluous and foolish to pray for the dead. But if he was looking to the splendid reward that is laid up for those who fall asleep in godliness, it was a holy and pious thought. Therefore he made atonement for the dead, so that they might be delivered from their sin. The word of the Lord A Job 19.1, I know that my Redeemer lives. A reading from the book of Job Job answered: O that my words were written down! O that they were inscribed in a book! O that with an iron pen and with lead they were engraved on a rock forever!

What gain have the workers from their toil? I have seen the business that God has given to everyone to be busy with. He has made everything suitable for its time. The word of the Lord.

33 Liturgy Resources Rites and Sacraments: Communion and the Eucharist NEW! Whose Mass Is It? Why People Care So Much About the Catholic Liturgy by Paul Turner When changes happen to the Catholic Mass, opinions are strong and diverse. Everyone feels in some way that the Mass is theirs. It is. Or is it? Whose Mass is it? And what should people do to claim it? Whether or not adult Catholics attend Mass regularly, they strongly bond with it. Within a single generation, Englishspeaking Catholics experienced the Second Vatican Council s authorization for the first overhaul of the liturgy in four hundred years, and then, in 2011, they prepared for and implemented a revised vernacular translation. Each of these two events awakened strong feelings and no small amount of lament from other Christian bodies who share the basic structure and content of the Roman Catholic Mass as people gradually became aware that someone else s decision was going to affect the cornerstone of their spiritual life. In Whose Mass Is It? Paul Turner examines the impact of the Mass, the connections it makes, and its purpose in the lives of believers. 134 pages, 15.5 x 23 cm, paperback, Liturgical Press ISBN: Code: $18.75 My Sacrifice and Yours Our Participation in the Eucharist by Paul Turner In this short booklet, Paul Turner unpacks the meaning of the sacrifice of the Mass. In pastoral language, he explores more deeply how our participation in the Mass unites us to Christ. Through this guided reflection, we will become aware of the sacrifice Christ made for us, how we participate in this sacrifice each time we gather and participate in the Eucharistic mystery, and how we give back as his disciples. This booklet may be used at any time during the liturgical year, but is extremely appropriate during the season of Lent. It may be used by parish worship teams to explore the nature of the Eucharist as sacrifice as a resource for adult formation sessions. 32 pages, 11 x 13.5 cm, saddle-stitched ISBN: Code: MSY copies $ copies $1.50 The Royal Road to Joy The Eucharist and the Beatitudes by Dom David Bird This profound book contains two commentaries: one on the Beatitudes and the other on the Mass, which make clear the intimate connection between spirituality and celebration.

At the end of each commentary on the Beatitudes he examines the lives of St. Seraphim (an Orthodox hermit) and St. John Vianney (the Curé d Ars) to show the Beatitudes at work in the lives of these two great Saints. His section by section commentary on the Mass is invaluable. This title is part of the Hillenbrand Books imprint, studies series. 304 pages, 15 x 23 cm, paperback ISBN: Code: HRO-YRD $

34 Liturgy Resources Rites and Sacraments: Communion and the Eucharist The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass by Michael McGuckian This unique study explores the coherence of the Catholic tradition in relation to the fundamentals of faith. It will provide the reader with a contemporary understanding of traditional sacrifice. Catholic theology has struggled for an adequate account of the doctrine of sacrifice. In this book, McGuckian contends that the concept of sacrifice is central to the whole vision of faith. The Eucharist makes the Church, and the Eucharist is a sacrifice, so if we do not understand sacrifice we do not understand the Church. The Catholic faith contends that the Eucharist is a sacrifice. This introspective and contemplative work gives an intriguing and compelling account of how it actually is.

61 Liturgy Resources Music Sacred Music and Liturgical Reform Treasures and Transformations by Anthony Ruff, OSB Sacred Music and Liturgical Reform is a high-level study of liturgical music in the reforms of the Second Vatican Council. Anthony Ruff, a preeminent scholar of liturgical music, proposes a hermeneutic for understanding the Second Vatican Council s teachings on worship music: a certain balanced inconsistency rather than absolutist and rationalistic coherence. Drawing on the musical and liturgical history that led up to and informed the statements of the Council, Ruff offers a centrist interpretation of Vatican II s teachings on worship music, an interpretation that lacked scholarly statement, and in the process fills a gap by seeking to reclaim and redefine the center.

121 Papal and Church Documents The Essential Elements of Evangelization Today by the Episcopal Commission for Doctrine What does it take to be evangelizers in the pluralistic world we live in as Canadians? In this pastoral reflection, the Episcopal Commission for Doctrine proposes a path forward following the example of the early Church. The central theme is that of a threefold witness which manifests (1) a personal, living encounter with Christ, (2) the love lived in Christian community, and (3) service to others. Although this text was composed prior to the release of Pope Francis apostolic exhortation Evangelii Gaudium (The Joy of the Gospel), its approach and recommendations are similar, while providing a uniquely Canadian perspective. 16 pages, 18 x 20.5 cm, saddle-stitched ISBN: Code: copies $ copies $2.55 Also available in French (Code: ) Lumen Fidei* Encyclical Letter on the Light of Faith by Pope Francis The first Encyclical Letter signed by Pope Francis, Lumen fidei The light of faith, was released on July 5th, The Encyclical Letter is about the light of the faith and is divided into four chapters: We have believed in love; Unless you believe, you will not understand; I delivered to you what I also received; and God prepares a city for them.

122 Papal and Church Documents Deus Caritas Est* Encyclical Letter on Christian Love by Benedict XVI In introducing his letter, Pope Benedict XVI writes: I wish in my first Encyclical to speak of the love which God lavishes upon us and which we in turn must share with others. He describes how the words of the title, God is love, taken from the First Letter of John, express with remarkable clarity the heart of the Christian faith. This historic encyclical, the first by Pope Benedict XVI, conveys a timely message written in an accessible style. The letter is divided into two interconnected parts. With the first part, the Holy Father seeks to clarify some essential facts concerning the love which God mysteriously and gratuitously offers to man, together with the intrinsic link between that Love and the reality of human love. The Pope notes that the second part is more concrete, since it treats the ecclesial exercise of the commandment of love of neighbour. 48 pages, 15 x 23 cm, saddle-stitched ISBN: Code: $6.95 Also available in French (Code: R) Spe Salvi* Encyclical Letter on Christian Hope by Benedict XVI In this second encyclical, Benedict XVI deals with the incompatibility between Christian hope and the individualism found within society.

This results in beautiful and profound meditations on Christian concepts of faith, eternal life, life as a relationship, individualism, being (for others), and hope and the modern age. The letter concludes with three prescriptive Settings for learning and practicing hope, and a final meditation on Mary, our Star of Hope on the human journey. 68 pages, 15 x 23 cm, paperback ISBN: Code: R $6.95 Also available in French (Code: R) Caritas in Veritate* Encyclical Letter on Charity and Truth by Benedict XVI Charity in truth, to which Jesus Christ bore witness by his earthly life and especially by his death and resurrection, is the principal driving force behind the authentic development of every person and of all humanity.

From these opening words, Pope Benedict XVI goes on to explain the central role of charity at the heart of the Church s social doctrine. In Caritas in veritate he defines this as the principle around which the church s social doctrine turns, a principle that takes on practical form in the criteria that govern moral action. 116 pages, 15 x 23 cm, paperback ISBN: Code: R 1-9 copies $ copies $ copies $ copies $8.37 Also available in French (Code: R)
