Whether it is for a renovation or a new construction, Our Place of Worship offers a process that a community may follow in developing its worship space. It also presents principles and characteristics of an appropriate place of worship and it outlines the requirements of the liturgy according to the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy of Vatican II and the Introduction to the Roman Missal.
Numerous photographs accompany the text throughout the book.
Complementary notes in the margins further enhance the text and bring out specific aspects of the topics treated. This new resource contains five appendices and a bibliography, and comes with a separate leaflet that can be photocopied and handed out in parishes. The basic process outlined in the kit is based on a design process developed by Michael Boreskie.
