The Hand Missal History Project

Welcome


This site is home to the Hand Missal History Project, an independent research initiative. We’re dedicated to exploring Catholic history through the untold and forgotten experiences of the laity across the centuries.

The project is still in the early stages. Our ultimate goal is to publish a book which tells the story of vernacular hand missals for the Catholic laity, from their ancient origins to the publication of the Roman Missal of 1969.
