Customer Reviews

The Mass for Children

Ordered these for my parish and they are wonderful. I would say, however, that the My Picture Missal is slightly better, mostly because of the artwork. But, this is an excellent companion to My Picture Missal, which we already had in our parish.

Simply, excellent

This is a step-by-step guide to the Mass. Children or newcomers who just want to know what to do and when to do it, what to say and when to say it, will benefit from this wonderful teaching tool.

Solid introduction

We have been reviewing children's books for use as pew missals in our parish. The Mass for Children offers basic information on the parts of the Mass and offers enough of the common prayers, (Gloria, Profession of Faith, etc.) that children will be able to follow most of the Mass. The illustrations are adequate, if somewhat bland. The illustration for the reception of Eucharist depicts reception on the tongue.
