A Sacristan's Guide to the Traditional Roman Rite

The worldwide rediscovery of the riches of the traditional Latin liturgy especially in its older (pre-1955) form has brought about the need for adequate handbooks. The present guide is intended specifically for sacristans who play a usually unseen but nevertheless vital role in preparing for the ceremonies and ensuring that all is done in accordance with the best principles customs and authorities. I warmly commend this text and hope that it will bring further beauty to the liturgy and greater glory to God. Bishop Athanasius Schneider.
