1962 Daily Missals
Credo has obtained a number of 1962 Daily Missals and will have them on-hand for sale to Credo Members at the June Forum for $50 each. The normal retail price of this missal is $55 + shipping, so this saves you about $10. We will take orders for more if we run out. The missal is available in Black or White flexible leather.
Produced with the cooperation of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, this 2,200+ page missal is based on the Daily Missal and Liturgical Manual published by Laverty & Sons, Leeds, England in 1960 and has been fully revised and updated. The production quality is excellent, with all the text and artwork being digitally produced. This is not a photographic reproduction with fuzzy print and smeared graphics -- the typesetting is all new. It really is nice. And of course, it uses all the T-Forms (Thee, Thou, whilst, wouldst). The language is very much like the Lasance missals you may have seen or even used. The Foreword and Imprimatur are from the Most Reverend Fabian W. Bruskewitz, Bishop of Lincoln, Nebraska, whom Credo was honored to have speak with us two years ago. For a complete list of features, look at this link.

Feb 13 - Credo Presents Dr. William A Borst on "The Shroud of Bernardin”
Credo of the Catholic Laity is proud to welcome to our lectern Wm. A. Borst Ph.D., Professor of History at St. Louis University.
Dr. Borst writes the monthly newsletter for the Cardinal Mindszenty Foundation. He became involved in the Prolife movement in 1986 and is a board member of Birthright St. Louis, he has also held several offices in the St. Louis Archdiocesan Prolife committee. His talk will focus on the late Cardinal Joseph Bernardin’s comments when he advanced the notion that Catholic Politicians should not be judged solely or even primarily by their positions on abortion. Abortion was merely one strand in the Catholic seamless garment regarding the defense of life.
Dr. Borst has had a varied and interesting professional life. In addition to teaching history at a number of St. Louis colleges and universities he developed a passion for baseball . He has written many articles and had a number of media appearances regarding this subject. This year marks his 20th anniversary on radio station WGNU where he is a talk show host. His commentaries require him to delve deeply into world events and American culture.
In addition to his many articles he has written a number of books. His most recent The Scorpion and the Frog: A natural Conspiracy, examines secret societies and their negative influence on American social and cultural history. Books will be available at the forum.
