The Chapel Missal is a smaller version of the Altar Missal and is designed for use at chapel altars, or where a more portable Missal is required. It is also suitable for use at the chair in partnership with the Altar Missal.

Ideal for:

• use at the chair
• side chapels
• house chapels
• schools
• chaplaincies to prisons, hospitals, armed forces
• Mass centres
• Comparison with the Altar Missal

• smaller dimensions, scaled down by 15%
• 6 page tabs, 15mm ribbons
• bonded rather than real leather binding
• smooth not ribbed spine
• one weight of paper used throughout
• red not gold page edges

Beauty & Durability

• Binding. Bound in bonded calf-grain leather.
• Cover decoration. Gold decorative blocking on front, back and spine. Cruciform design based on Byzantine St George’s cross.
• Strong binding. Endpapers made of extra-strong tear-resistant Skinplast® to ensure durability.
• Red-coloured page edges.
• Colour illustrations. Full-colour illustrations from the 12th-century Ingeborg Psalter (Musée Condé).

Ease of use

• Leather tabs. 6 hand-placed bonded leather tabs with gold blocking to mark the start of the 4 main Eucharistic Prayers, Communion Rite, and the Order of Mass.
• Ribbons. Six liturgically-coloured 15mm-wide ribbons with hand-sewn butterfly ends to ensure no fraying. Expertly joined to the volume to prevent tangling.
• National Propers. Contains National Propers for England and Wales, Scotland, and Australia, all placed in the Proper of Saints with each in its correct place (i.e. not placed separately in an appendix).
• Concelebration. All Eucharistic Prayers, including those for Reconciliation, are annotated for up to 4 concelebrants.
• Index. Fully indexed, including National Propers.

Clarity of the page

• Paper. Cream, low-reflectivity, high-contrast 60 gsm paper throughout. Sustainably sourced, archive grade.
• Text. Typeset in specially modified version of Stone font for maximum readability with rubrics in red. Size is 12 pt.
