Lumen Christi Missal
A Beautiful, Permanent, Comprehensive Worship Resource for the Pew
The Lumen Christi Missal is the flagship of the Lumen Christi Series. First published in 2012, it has quickly become one of the most viable permanent replacements for disposable missal subscriptions and so much more. A dignified and beautiful book for the assembly with two ribbons, it actually pays for itself in less than three years.
It contains Lectionary Readings ABC for Sundays and Feasts, Daily Mass propers, simple English chant settings for the Entrance, Responsorial Psalm, Alleluia, Offertory and Communion, sung Order of Mass, 18 Mass Ordinaries, Devotions, and more. A worship resource with the pastoral needs of parishes in mind, the Lumen Christi Missal is ready to assist your parish in the ongoing work of liturgical renewal.
Lumen Christi Hymnal
The Perfect Companion Hymnal
The Lumen Christi Hymnal is the ideal hymnal companion to the Lumen Christi Missal. It is the hymnal that parishes have been searching for, but have not been able to find.
Containing the essential core of classic hymnody with the most familiar tunes, and dignified, theologically sound texts, it is an immediately practical and useful hymnal for parish life today.
This sleek volume also contains the complete cycle of traditional chant hymns for Lauds, Vespers and Compline in English translation, making the Lumen Christi Hymnal useful for parish as well as individual celebrations of the Divine Office.
Lumen Christi Simple Gradual (Assembly & Choir Editions)
Equip your Parish to Sing the Mass
The Lumen Christi Simple Gradual is the perfect starting point for parishes to begin singing the Mass. This "economy edition" of the Lumen Christi Missal contains a complete repertoire of simple English chant antiphons for the Entrance, Offertory and Communion processions that are specially arranged for congregational singing.
Additionally, this volume contains the full sung Order of Mass, and 18 Mass Ordinaries.
