Which Missal?

Well it does to the people who post here... dispassionate and reasoned debate, with a good deal of humour thrown in for good measure.

Which Missal?

Post by High Peak »

Could I have your input as to which personal Missal you use/prefer and why.

Last time, I bought the CTS edition; partly because it had the Latin as well as the English (not that I attend Latin Masses) and partly because it included the Missal Tones.

However, I am not convinced that it's the most easily laid out or simple to use, and only having two ribbons is a real inconvenience.

So, where else should I look and why?

Thanking you in anticipation.

Only the CTS Missal is available at the moment and it's pretty grim.
The Hodder edition has just gone to print. From what I hear, it will be much more user friendly.

I discovered last night that the CTS edition does not have the sense that the new Lectionary readings have.

I guess that it stands to reason - it's already large because it has both English and Latin.

But it's another black mark against it.
