Magnificat
Convenient pocket-sized publication offers Morning and Evening Prayers, Mass readings, lives of the saints, spiritual direction, and more.  Highly recommended:
 "I just want to thank you and be sure you know what you mean to countless military families. You can't imagine the comfort MAGNIFICAT brings to my son when he is on maneuvers for many weeks at a time and unable to get to Mass because there are no Catholic chaplains to come out to the field. It is a permanent part of his pack- right next to dry socks. On the base he attends Mass several times a week and leads a rosary prayer group every Thursday night. There is a very devout priest who ministers to the base- but in the field you are the only connection he has to the Mass. May God bless and multiply all your efforts."
Free complimentary issue availalbe upon request.
