If you are buying the set of the Liturgy of the Hours, don't get fooled and buy this with it. The full set is a great value and includes this item as well as the current year's guide.

In sum, buy the four volumne set and you will have all you need.

This 1992 supplement to the Divine Office (Liturgy of the Hours) contains the updated additions to the Proper of Saints, and is complete up until 1992. But I'm hoping the Church (or the US Conference of Catholic Bishops) will put out a new, updated supplement. It is now 2011 and many new saints, widely known and loved, have been added to the Church calendar, such as Saint Pio (Padre Pio), Saint Faustina (Divine Mercy), and most recently, Blessed John Paul II. This 1992 supplement is still good to have, but it will not contain any of the more recently canonized saints and blesseds.

Unless you live in the USA, or want to follow their liturgical calender instead of that of your own country, this will be of no use to you.

This is a necessity to have if you want to experience the full experience of praying the Liturgy of the Hours. I am giving a prayer book or Liturgy to relatives this Christmas and am including this with the books. thanks so much.

This is a very small supplement,
but the pages are the same super
quality as the large liturgy book.
