AN ALTAR MISSAL OF UNPRECEDENTED SCOPE IN THE ENGLISH TRADITION OF OLD AND INDEPENDENT CATHOLICISM
The Eucharistic Missal of the Communion of International Catholic Communities provides a clear, easy to understand yet dignified form of the Mass of the Western Rite of the Catholic Church, conformed to classical Christian theology through the lineage of the Old Catholic tradition. Full propers for the Christian Year, Feasts, and Pastoral Needs are provided, as are Votive prayers and forms of celebration for the Communion's Cistercian Order and for Sunday Celebrations in the Absence of a Priest.
This volume contains a fresh translation of the Gregorian (Roman) Canon, four Eucharistic Prayers with variable prefaces, the Anaphora of Saint Basil, and four Eucharistic Prayers with fixed prefaces (including the so-called Prayer of Hippolytus).
The Octaves of Epiphany and Pentecost have been restored, an updated form of celebration for Good Friday is provided, and an expanded Easter Vigil is also provided in this edition.
This form for the celebration of the Eucharist enters use in the COICC on the First Sunday of Advent of Liturgical Year 2023.
