St. Gregory's Prayer Book

The St. Gregory's Prayer Book is a beautifully produced leatherette prayer book compiled by the Ordinariates established by Pope Benedict XVI and drawing on the riches of the Anglican liturgical heritage and the exquisite Cranmerian language of the Book of Common Prayer to further enrich the panoply of Catholic liturgy and devotion.

The text includes ancient English collects, introits and hymns available together for the first time for the whole Church as approved examples of Catholic liturgy. In addition to the Liturgical texts, classic translations of traditional prayers and devotions for use in the Church and in the home have been lovingly compiled and edited in St. Gregory's Prayer Book.

This lovely book of prayers is user friendly and accessible to Catholic faithful with a love of beautiful language and in search for supplementary resources for their prayer life that are both new and at the same time respectful of Church tradition. With gold blocking on cover and spine, and a silk ribbon marker.

Customer Reviews

Perfect prayers, loved the cover art and style!

As an Anglican covert to the Catholic Church through the Ordinariate, this is the prayer book my parish uses and I love it! It has all the basic mechanics of a BCP but with all the rich Catholic prayers and doctrine restored. The only improvements I’d like to see are deluxe/premium leather and hardback editions. Also I’d like it to be a little larger in size. The imitation leather is fine but the paper quality is low so it doesn’t lay flat or open easily and once you open it it doesn’t close. The cover sticks up. These are just knit picky things but these are the improvements I’d love to see! God bless you!
