...celebration in London to mark the launch of an English edition of Magnificat by the Catholic Herald newspaper. Magnificat is a superbly-produced daily prayer book, with the readings for Mass, lives of the saints, and everything you need for daily/weekly devotions.

Dear Auntie Joanna
This is truly great news!
When we were studying at Franciscan University of Steubenville we used to get a copy of this each month.
Back in Blighty we missed it!
A few weeks ago we found a copy in a parish in North Wales and devoured it! Angie has, just this week, ordered me a one year subscription for Christmas and I feel like the kid who got his two front teeth!!!
Magnificat is first class; beautiful art work, parts of the Divine Office, the daily Mass readings, lives of the saints and quality meditations/reflections/quotes.
We highly recommend this as a great resource and help for the spiritual life.
God bless you and all you do.

I love Magnificat. I never leave home without it.
