About the Author

---

Fr. Hubert McEvoy, S.J. (1899-1973), was an English priest and a prolific author. His books include The Sacrifice We Offer, Priestly Prayers, Devotions for Holy Communion, In Time of Sickness, A Book of Family Prayers, Children and Priest at Mass, Peace Be with You, Prayers from Psalms with other Prayers from Scripture, and Work and Worship: Daily Reading and Prayers. His last book, New Every Moment, was published after his death. His book The Sacrifice We Offer was the inspiration for a pioneering film by Alan Turner (1949) under the same title with a commentary written by the author. Both book and film endeavored to give a better understanding and explanation of the Mass.
