Is there much of a problem using a laymans Missal printed before 1962?
Many Traditional Catholics use older Missals without any problems for most of the year. Older Missals will not have the Order of Holy Week and Easter Ceremonies, which was revised in 1955. Not having these texts can make following the revised Holy Week ceremonies fairly difficult. In addition, the older the Missal is, the greater chance that the more recent Proper Prayers for some Saints’ days will be missing. Click here for more information.
