When do I change volumes? David Sunday, August 1, 2010

Question:

I always struggle to figure out when I'm supposed to change volumes. I can see the volume I'm using now ends the Office of Readings at Saturday, 17th Week in Ordinary time, so that's a clue, but where is there a reference for this? Thanks.



Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM

Dear David:

The four volumes are labeled as to what weeks they cover. If you know the week then just look at which book covers that week. Book IV covers weeks 18-34 of Ordinary Time. This information is on the spine of the book and on the title page.

I would advise buying the 2010 Guide while there are copies left. The Guide not only tells you which book you need and when but the page numbers to go to for each Office for each.

A Guide is sold for each year. The 2011 Guide should be on sale this Fall.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
