  • Module 2: The Way of Praying the Mass

    This module will explore how each element of the Liturgy has a sacramental quality about it, and can be for you a grace-filled encounter with Jesus as well as how to transform your prayers at mass into a conversation with God. Chris Carstens will walk through the spiritual meanings behind the signs, symbols, words, and actions of the mass to spiritually enrich your experience of Holy Mass.
