Pronunciation Guide for the Lectionary

A Comprehensive Resource for Proclaimers of the Word, Second Edition

This second edition of Pronunciation Guide for the Lectionary expands the first edition’s selection of words from the Lectionary for Mass, (Sundays, weekdays, ritual, and votive Masses). It now includes names of recently canonized saints for the United States and Canada and additional words suggested by readers. The easy-to-understand pronunciation aids have been updated. This resource will give confidence to everyone who is called upon to proclaim in the liturgy—readers, deacons, priests, and masters of ceremony. It belongs in every sacristy.
