When Children Gather contains a wide assortment of music that is fully integrated with liturgies and prayer services. Compiled by Robert W. Piercy and Vivian Williams, national leaders in the field of liturgy and catechetics, this collection works beautifully in relation to the liturgical year. When Children Gather: 20 Eucharistic Liturgies for the School Year contains everything you need to prepare meaningful children's eucharistic liturgies based on the guidelines given in the Directory for Masses with Children. Each liturgy contains musical suggestions, homily preparation, age-appropriate alternate prayers, mystagogy suggestions, and references to the Lectionary and Sacramentary.
