Mass Missalettes
Living in Faith is a missalette meant for Latin Catholic Churches in India and in many parts of the world. The missalette follows NRSV Bible, the officially sanctioned Bible in India for its reading and Bible scriptures. It is the only publication of its kind and caters to thousands of clergy and laity across Asia.
A missalette is a guide book to your daily mass in your parish or Chapel. It contains every word that the Celebrant says and which as a participant you need to say and understand. It also contains daily reading, responsorial psalm and even reflection. It is a great way to understand and make others understand what the mass is.
Living in Faith is the Indian version of Living with Christ – the world renowned missalette that millions of people across US, Canada and Europe uses every day. It is promoted in India by the Congregation of the Augustinians of the Assumption, Paris, France. Besides thousands of clergy across India use it in their day to day mass.
Whether you need it or not is purely your decision. Whether you need to carry it to your daily mass is also your prerogative. But imagine a situation whereby you don’t miss a single mass any day with this book. Or if you are travelling? All you need to do is to read through. Also think about those who may not be able to attend the mass daily. This is their daily companion. This is not merely a missalette but also gives unique insights on faith, family and living.
Bible diary is not a missalette. It only has readings. It is a single book for the whole year. Living in Faith is a complete mass book for daily mass and is a monthly.
