Product Review

The newly approved translation of the readings for weekday Masses is now available to presiders, preachers, and faithful alike in a convenient one-volume study edition. LTP's study edition of the Weekday Lectionary, although not intended for use in the liturgy, offers many of the same features as its beautiful ritual volumes. The efficient two-column layout of the readings allows the user to view the first and Gospel readings and the responsorial psalm together, with few page turns. The large, clear type--the same size as that found in LTP's Sunday Lectionary study edition--is easy to read, and the books lie-flat binding allows it to stay open to the correct page while the user consults other resources and takes notes for homilies and study groups.Those who attend daily Mass regularly will want a copy of this volume for their own prayerful preparation, as will presiders, liturgists, students, and preachers. Those who plan and preside at daily services of the word or communion services will also need a copy to prepare reflections and practice readings. The parish library, sacristy, and office can also benefit from this practical tool for preparing and celebrating daily Mass. Published by Liturgy Training Publications.
