The fourth edition of the bestselling booklet Together at Baptism includes texts from the new English translation of The Order of Baptism of Children, which must be used by parishes in the United States beginning on April 12, 2020, but may be used as early as February 2, 2020. Author Robert M. Hamma helps parents understand the sacrament with brief commentaries that provide insight not only on the celebration of Baptism but also on handing on the Catholic faith to their children in the midst of everyday life.

Together at Baptism offers parish staff a practical, concise tool to help prepare parents and godparents for the Baptism of a child. It offers both spiritual support and important information about the sacrament. The booklet contains twenty-six brief commentaries by Robert M. Hamma on the essential elements and liturgical texts of The Order of Baptism of Children. Parents will learn about their role as first witnesses to the faith, the essential support of godparents, the distinctively Catholic understanding of the sacrament, and the joys and challenges of lifelong commitment to the faith.

The familiar and popular features of earlier editions of Together at Baptism remain in place, but have been updated to meet the realities of today"s Catholic families, including shifting family structures, the influences of digital distractions on family life, and the need for basic education about the faith. The words of the baptismal celebration and the three-fold immersion in or pouring on of holy water are the same, but many of the greetings, prayers, and instructions of the liturgy have subtle, important changes shifting the tone to the more formal language of the newest edition of the Roman Missal. These changes affect such elements as:

• the greeting for the Rite of Receiving the Child;
• text of the Renunciation of Sin and Profession of Faith by parents and godparents;
• the post-baptismal Explanatory Rites the Anointing after Baptism, Clothing with the White Garment, Handing on of a Lighted Candle, and the Ephphatha (be opened prayer); and
• the formulas for the Prayer of the Faithful.

The booklet also contains all the Lectionary readings assigned for the celebration of Baptism, the alternate prayer texts provided by The Order of Baptism of Children, and a selection sheet for parents invited to choose readings, prayers, and other texts for the liturgy.

Text by Inos Biffi. A beautifully illustrated overview of the Church's liturgical year, starting with Advent and ending with the last Sunday in Ordinary Time. The text features explanations of all the celebrations with their scriptural underpinnings and the richly-hued art, by Franco Vignazio, manages to combine a medieval style with a modern sensibility. Paperback cover.

By Michael Kwatera, osb, Dolores Martinez, D. Todd Williamson.

By the liturgical celebration of blessings, Christians live out their baptismal call to give praise and thanksgiving to God, acknowledging that God is the source of every gift, and imploring him for protection.

This resource is a helpful guide to the many orders of blessing as found in the Book of Blessings. It highlights blessings such as the Blessing of the Advent Wreath, the Blessing of Animals, and the Inauguration of a New Pastor. Guide for Celebrating Blessings provides liturgical guidance for celebrating blessings at Mass and outside of Mass, selecting music and readings, preparing the environment, involving liturgical ministers, and inviting the full, conscious, and active participation of the assembly.

As part of the Preparing Parish Worship series, this book includes:

• Theological reflections on the nature of Catholic blessings
• An historical overview of the liturgical development of blessings
• A walk-through of the Book of Blessings
• Answers to frequently asked questions
• Assistance with best liturgical practices
• Inspirational and informative quotations from Scripture and Church documents

Advanced training for proclaimers of the word of God by Douglas Leal.

Assemblies recognize the difference between a lector who simply reads and one who truly proclaims the Word of God. They perk up and take special notice when they sense that the lector has worked to get inside the text, to express the meaning authentically, and to draw them into the story. Douglas Leal has spent decades as a lector, lector trainer, actor, and director. He knows how to coach lectors beyond reading so they can become proclaimers of the Word. The conversational, spirited style of the book recreates the sense of a live training session with the author. In a magazine format, with running text surrounded by boxes that focus on a particular subjects and techniques, a tool from the actor's toolbox, or an encouraging story from the world of acting, the book presents a wealth of wisdom and practical instruction that can carry a lector far beyond basic training. Chapter by chapter, Leal guides lectors to
