Reconciliation Liturgies—Planned and Ready to Use

SAN JOSE, Calif., April 28, 2011—Resource Publications announces the availability of a new collection of planned reconciliation liturgies.  Planning reconciliation liturgies requires much time and creativity. Here on CD-ROM much of the work is done for you. You can use them as they are on the disk, or change songs to ones familiar to your parish, change the ritual action following the confessions—whatever is needed to personalize them to make them work in your parish.

RECONCILIATION LITURGIES
Fifteen Celebrations for All Seasons
Millie Ferak Harmon
Text with PDF files on CD-ROM, $29.95
192 pages, 8½” x 11”
ISBN 0-89390-700-6

The services are scripted and laid out in a format that is ready to put in the presider’s binder. Or they can be adapted and edited to fit your parish—everything from the song selections to changes in the spoken text. Or the action following individual confessions can be changed to one that will work better in your community. Add as much or as little personalization as you wish. The reconciliation liturgies are accessible in three ways. There is a PDF e-book (readable with Adobe Reader) containing all the liturgies in one file with book marks to help you move from one liturgy to another. There are individual PDF files that can be printed and used as is. There are text files that can be edited for your particular situation.

Millie Ferak Harmon has been the liturgy coordinator at St. Bartholomew Parish in Columbus, IN for fifteen years. Prior to that she worked as an English teacher and as a free-lance writer for the archdiocesan newspaper.
