Novus Ordo
A warm, reverent home for Richard Moore’s lifework — guides to the Latin of the Mass and Elizabeth Moore’s sacred art, with the story up front and a clear path to the books.
01The challenge
A lifework deserves more than a marketplace listing. Richard Moore — a Naval Academy graduate and petroleum engineer who became, in retirement, a teacher of the Church’s sacred language — had written practical guides to the Latin of the Mass, and his wife Elizabeth had painted the sacred art alongside them. They needed a home online that carries the reverence of the subject, tells the story behind the work, and points readers to the books.
02What we built
We built a warm, reverent site that leads with the story and the beauty of the material, then guides visitors gently toward the books and the art.
The story, up front
Richard’s journey from Naval officer to Latinist frames the work with heart — visitors meet the man before anything is offered.
The books, made clear
“Novus Ordo: Rite of the Mass” is presented for what it teaches, with a direct, friction-free path to buy.
Room for the art
Elizabeth Moore’s sacred paintings get space to breathe in their own gallery.
Reverent, timeless design
Warm tones, gold accents, and refined typography — a look that fits the sacred subject and reads beautifully on any device.
03The outcome
Novus Ordo now has an online home worthy of a life’s work — one that tells the Moores’ story, showcases the books and the art, and gives readers a clear path to bring the Latin of the Mass into their own prayer.
