Spirituality for the Solitary
Author: Mark G. Boyer
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666777285
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
This is a book about spirituality for the solitary, those people who live alone. In the past they were known as hermits, eremites, and anchorites; today they are known as pioneers, mountain men and women, widows, widowers, and people who choose to live alone in the country or in the city. They spend their days like other ordinary people taking care of daily chores, but also spending some time in prayer and meditation. The solitary life is alive and well, and it appears in all world religions. The solitary seeks solitude for prayer, meditation, self-awareness, and personal development. Living alone in a house or apartment begins to transform one's life; a person sets off on the path of purpose, the path of integrity, the path of transcendence that lifts his or her heart, mind, and spirit to the divine presence, God, who transforms more and more as the solitary dives deeper and deeper. This book provides an in-depth exploration of spirituality for the solitary along with eight-part exercises designed to further enhance solitary spirituality. Included are prayers, psalms in contemporary English, and celebrations using natural things, such as water, oil, and fire.

Some Elements of the Mass
Author: Rev. Fr. Gregory O. Okorobia
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1450014585
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 65
Book Description
The Mass has been at the center of Catholic worship since the day of it's institution on that first Holy Thursday when Jesus Christ took bread, blessed and broke it, and took the cup filled with wine, gave them to his disciples saying: "Take and eat, this is my body...", "take and drink, this is my blood". Many people who attend this worship observe many ritual actions performed by the priest, and some prayers said both by the celebrant and the people, without knowing why they do and say them. "Some Elements of the Mass" is a brief explanation of these different ritual actions and prayers that make up the Roman Catholic Mass. It tells the reader the origin of some of these ritual actions and prayers, and why they are placed at their present positions within the structure of the Roman Catholic Mass. Both those coming in newly into the Catholic Church and 'cradle Catholics' have found "Some Elements of the Mass very enlightening and educative. Like Most Reverend Robert F. Vasa said in the foreword: "The booklet is written, not for scholars, but rather for the "common man" and as such provides a very good introduction to the Mass".
