Christian liturgy, prayerbooks & hymnals; Christian life & practice

The most integral part of Christian worship is the Holy Mass, where the church comes together to enjoin as one in the Sacrament of Christ's Body and Blood. This is universal throughout Christianity, where its practice is detailed in liturgical books according to church tradition. The Aifreann na hEireann, or ""Irish Mass,"" is a faithful translation and reconstruction of the Lorrha Missal, the oldest surviving liturgical text in Ireland. Each chapter is a complete liturgy, including rubrics for clerical use. Combined with the Portus na hEireann, these books serve as a complete liturgical rite that allows Christians to worship in the manner of early Irish monks.

Reviews for Aifreann Na Héireann: The Holy Mass According to the Lorrha Missal

""Mr. Ashley's work, Aifreann na hÉireann, reflects his passion for the ancient Celtic Church and his desire that she recover her true identity and the rites that belong uniquely to her. This translation represents the moment of resurrection for this Celtic liturgy which has been hidden for so long. It testifies to the true orthodoxy of the west, and it also provides a clear reminder that early church unity was not founded on liturgical uniformity."" --Robert Gillispie, pastor, St. Joseph the Just Parish, Florence, Kentucky ""Aifreann na hÉireann is a welcome addition to my library. Dustin's passion for Gaelic history and spirituality is both evident and inspiring. His research digs deep into the original sources and language--giving us insight into the early Celtic Christian community."" --Brent Williams, pastor, Colonial Presbyterian Church, Roanoke, Virginia
