A presentation of a unique contemporary Eucharist infused with Celtic traditions.
Drawing together texts from Scripture, the mainstream Irish, Scottish, and Welsh traditions, and contemporary spirituality, A Celtic Eucharist is a vital liturgy that relates to the here and now while it fosters a connection to the past. The result is an original and striking service that prompts fresh appreciation of the Eucharist.
An optional Ceremony of Light is included for evening celebrations. A selection of alternative prayers and sentences allows for seasonal and pastoral variation, and helpful notes for celebrant suggest possible uses for this service. Easily adaptable to formal and informal settings, A Celtic Eucharist can be used in conjunction with other lectionaries.
