In this, the sixth month since our Lectionary change, I want to thank you all for your various words of encouragement over the last year. As you know, the change in translation for the Mass readings across Britain brought with it many challenges for our edition of Magnificat.

New readers have joined the Magnificat family­ in the recent months and found in it a valuable support for their prayer life, especially with the new Lectionary. During this Easter season, may I ask you to consider whether you know anyone (individual or group) that would benefit from your introduction to this publication?*

We very much appreciate your practical support, and, of course, your ongoing prayers for our work as we place it this May under the patronage of Saint Joseph the Worker and his Blessed spouse, our Mother.

Yours in the friendship of Christ,
