Lectionary for Mass Supplement

This new resource gathers in one convenient volume those additions or changes that have been made to the current four-volume Lectionary for Mass published between 1998 and 2002.

Additions or modifications made to the Lectionary affect the Proper of Time, the Proper of Saints, Ritual Masses, Masses for Various Needs and Occasions, and Votive Masses.

Notable Changes

The proper Psalms for the Extended Form of the Vigil Mass for Pentecost have been added. The four Old Testament Readings are provided in their appropriate sequence, with the proper Psalm following each Reading.

The Readings and Psalms for the Mass for Giving Thanks to God for the Gift of Human Life, previously located throughout the four-volume Lectionary, are now collected all together. They may be used on the Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children (January 22) or on other occasions focusing on the dignity of human life.
