Description: I am a retired priest/professor and I am looking for a good home for many of the books that I have collected over the years. This is a hard cover book, though in a pocket sized edition. There are no turned corners to the pages, and there is no writing in the book, except for the previous owners name inside the front cover. According to the preface this little book is “an endeavor to draw out, for those who find but little time for quiet thought and study, some of the deeper meanings which underlie the simple and touching language of our communion office. it is here to set forth in a popular form that prevailing characteristic of sacrifice which marks holy communion from the beginning to the close.” The book includes a lengthy article about the Eucharistic offering as background theology. There are multiple pages on how to prepare for the Eucharist, including many devotionals. At the end, there are many thanksgivings after communion and other sessions that could be offered. There’s also a listing of epistles and gospels for special occasions throughout the year. This book was left me by a previous priest in a parish I worked in in Maine on the priest had collected many books from a high church/Anglo Catholic perspective. I’m looking for a good home for these books so they don’t get lost in the future. Please consider adopting this one for your own and giving it a new life on your shelves .
