· Why is so much silence required at Mass?
· Explained: the priest’s motions (e.g., keeping thumb and forefinger together after the consecration)
“We want our children to love the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Love proceeds from knowledge: you can only love what you know. The Catechism teaches us that our purpose in life is to know, love and serve God. It is only if you know God, that you can love Him. In The Mass Explained to Children, Maria Montessori gives young readers the knowledge from which a love for the Mass can grow.”
—Laura Berquist, Homeschool Specialist
