Roman Hand Missal Review (Fr. Lasance)

[@anthonhysalomone2025]

This is the best edition of the Roman Missal. The wealth of catechetical instruction is a treasure in itself.

[@lauraalmasan3930]

I just started attending the Latin mass and I love it! I received my new missal in the mail today. Thank you for the review!

Who printed it and has it held up

[@jamesdulany2176]

I wish a publisher would come out and publish a reprinting of this missal every so often just to update the Table of Moveable Feasts.

[@michaelp0819]

You did a terrific job with this! Your description of Fr. Lasance prompted me to do further reading. Thank you.

[@tradcatveils2442]

This is an excellent review. I was going to order the 1962 Angelus Press missal, but you've convinced me to buy the Fr. Lasance instead. God Bless JMJ+

[@RMB1208]

Thank you for the positive feedback. I am happy that you like the Fr. Lasance missal. I would caution you to find out what Mass your Priest is offering as there are a number of sizable differences between the Pre-1955 missal (Fr. Lasance) and the 1962 missal (Angelus Press). I don't want you to get a missal that will cause frustration. If I was going to an SSPX Mass, I would purchase the Angelus Press 1962.

[@arthurdevain754]

The "Father Lasance" Missal has a couple of things against it. One, and this is only cosmetic, the "gold" on the page edges runs off if it gets wet. Two, this version, like all of the Missals that are reprinted by the SeVacs, contains the pre-1955 Holy Week.

[@RMB1208]

I agree with your observation about the gold on the pages, although, I do find on this newer version that the gold is a little more resilient. I did want to make a distinction for anyone reading the comments who may not be as well informed as you are regarding your comment about pre-1955 Holy Week. I am not entirely sure if the publisher of this missal is sedevacantist; but, it is worth noting that a fair number of indult groups have returned to the pre-1955 missal. This is noteworthy (and I think the reason you pointed this out is) because if you try to use the Fr. Lasance Missal during Holy Week where they use the 1962 missal, it will be very difficult to follow. Thanks for watching.

[@arthurdevain754]

@@RMB1208 I have no first-hand knowledge, but I have heard that a year or two ago the FSSP was given permission to use the 1955 Holy Week but had to include the 2008 Prayer for the Descendants of Jacob AND the "flectamus genua."

[@johnchristiancanda3320]

I personally prefer the New Roman Missal, the New Missal for Every Day, My Prayer-Book, Our Lady Book and My Lord, My God, My All by Father Lasance, the St. Andrew Daily Missal and the Carmelite Missal over the 1958 Missal, the 1962 Missal, the Interim Missal and Christian Warfare.

[@liscampbell3]

Thank you for the video. Can you send me the exact link to the page where the Cincinnati diocese mentions Fr. Lasance? For some reason I cannot find it on their site no matter how I google or search. I would love to read what his abp. said about him in that little piece you showed in the video but most of it was cut out.

[@RMB1208]

I think they removed the link on the Cincinnati diocese website as I can no longer find the article and the link I have is now broken. However, an even better article that was just released in January 2021 with a more thorough history can be found here: www.catholicworldreport.com/2021/01/23/make-everything-count-for-eternity-the-story-of-fr-francis-x-lasance/

The Ángelus is not in the missal right?

I don't believe so

[@coondogbob]

Might be a silly question but could you still use this to some degree while attending the new mass ? I dont have a TML but still like the content of this misal ?

[@robertbauer7521]

Not a silly question. Unfortunately, you would not have any success in using this missal for the Novus Ordo: they are completely different. The Sunday Novus Ordo has 3 readings (that were put together in 1969) as opposed to 2 (which were put together - for the most part in the 6th century), the calendar was completely revised with some exceptions and the Canon is almost universally ignored at the Novus Ordo.

Which edition is this---I hear there are different one... please help!

[@RMB1208]

Edition is probably the wrong word (that I used) to describe the missal. There is only one edition and it is a reprint of the original. They recently did a new production run of the missal that made some physical improvements to the publication. I outline those changes in the video. The text is exactly the same, though. Does that help/make sense?
