Missal and Lectionary of Vatican II

Throughout the history of the Church, we have always sought beauty and depth in our relationship with God and in the celebration of our faith. The Vatican II Missal and Lectionary is a magnum opus of Spanish liturgy, the fruit of a painstaking collaborative effort between liturgical experts, theologians, biblical scholars, and other professionals.

This valuable liturgical tool is not only the translation and adaptation into Spanish of the official texts promulgated after the Second Vatican Council, but also a compendium of wisdom, spirituality, and aesthetics, inviting us to immerse ourselves in the mystery of the Eucharist and the sacramental life of the Church.

With an elegance worthy of the great jewels of our ecclesial tradition, this edition features clear and legible typography, generous line spacing, and a section layout that facilitates reading and understanding. The 140 x 210 mm format and 1,856 pages, along with a sturdy and comfortable binding, make it an indispensable companion for our liturgical celebrations.

The Vatican II Missal and Lectionary is a shared treasure that reaches the hands of priests, ordained ministers, lay people involved in the liturgy, religion teachers, faith educators, and theology students, as well as all the faithful who wish to deepen their understanding and experience of Christian liturgy and spirituality.

This work is, in itself, a hymn to the Church's love for the liturgy and a testimony to her desire to transmit the richness of our faith and tradition to present and future generations. As we delve into its pages, we join in the great symphony of praise that has resonated in the Church since the earliest times, and we join in a living and diverse communion that reflects the plurality and richness of the Catholic Church.

A true liturgical gem for approaching the very heart of faith and living the Christian vocation with renewed dedication and fervor.
