Arthur the Clumsy Altar Server has fulfilled his dream to serve at Mass. He's carried the crucifix and lit the candles. But Arthur's favorite moment is when the whole church falls completely silent and a server rings those beautiful bells - the moment when the bread and wine become Jesus' own Body and Blood.
Finally, Fr. Cruz tells Arthur he can ring the bells that day. During Mass, when the big moment comes, Arthur is so captivated he can't take his eyes off Jesus, really and truly present. So much so that he ... forgets to ring the bells.
"Arthur! The bells! Ring the bells!"
Find out what happens next in the second installment of the Arthur the Clumsy Altar Server series. Through this endearing story, Arthur and readers alike will grow in understanding of the Blessed Sacrament and come to appreciate God's closeness to us in the Eucharist.
