A Latin/English Missal for Young Catholics
A Review by Natasa Wilkie
he modern world comes with a clear set of – low -- expectations.
This is especially true regarding children, who are these days assumed to be incapable of anything so apparently demanding as sitting quietly for an hour. Imagine then, expecting them to not only sit quietly but to understand Mass in Latin?
But parental discipline and perseverance is necessary to raise expectations and lift the sights of the child to the truth and beauty of the Old Rite. One such disciplined parent is Dr. Peter Kwasniewski, father of two children and author of the Missal for Young Catholics. The missal is aimed at children who are old enough to read reasonably well but who would perhaps understandably be intimidated by a traditional missal and its many sections.
