This permanent book eliminates the necessity of purchasing disposable Missalettes which must be thrown away every few months. It has been approved by the USCCB. It will save your parish thousands of dollars—which can then be given to the poor—and does not limit the priest’s options when it comes to Memorials, Votive Masses, and so forth.

THIS SERIES OF BOOKS WAS PRODUCED by the Pope John Paul II Institute for Liturgical Renewal (Owasso, 74055). The Jogues Illuminated Missal bears a 25 March 2014 Imprimatur by Most Reverend Edward J. Slattery, Bishop of Tulsa. Watershed is honored to assist with online promotion until the Institute can create its own website. Specific questions about this series may be directed to the John Paul II Institute.

Members of Corpus Christi Watershed served as part of the production team, as did several CMAA members. The books are being sold by Père Isaac Jogues Art Productions, an LLC owned by a Catholic family. Watershed is honored to promote this endeavor, just as we promote any efforts to spread the singing of the Propers (such as the Simple English Propers, a CMAA venture). If you have legitimate resources to help Catholics sing the Propers, please let us know, so we can assist with promotion!
