Description
First and foremost, the Church warmly welcomes the engaged couple and rejoice in the love which they share. As we begin to prepare them for Marriage and the wedding liturgy, we find that few are familiar with liturgical terms and rituals. This book will be a helpful resource for the engaged couple and as well as parish staffs — you’ll want to have several dozen on hand at the parish office.
Written in very conversational language, The Gift of Love, provides basic liturgical catechesis on each of the three rites, lists of readings, guides for preparing a worship aid, principles for choosing music, frequently asked questions and their answers, and helpful tear-out preparation sheets.
