Magnificat

A million copies of the ‘Magnificat - LITURGIES AND EVENTS of the Papal Visit of Pope Benedict XVI to the United Kingdom September 16th to 19th 2010' are being distributed to parishes across England, Scotland and Wales over the next week.  The handbook contains the texts for the times the Holy Father will participate in public prayer, together with a series of brief articles about the Visit.  It comes in a hard-wearing, pocket-sized format which makes it easy to carry around and ‘pray as you go'.  It is also a key companion for the Papal liturgies.

Papal Visit Co-ordinator, Monsignor Andrew Summersgill said: "Although (a million copies) isn't enough for everybody who regularly attends Mass, it is enough for each household, certainly, to have a copy.
