About The Daily Missal
The Daily Missal sets out the Mass of every day — today, any day past, any day to come — in both forms of the Roman Rite: the readings of the Ordinary Form, celebrated in most parishes since 1970, and the complete propers of the 1962 Missal, celebrated as the Traditional Latin Mass. Choose your country’s calendar from the menu and the feasts follow it.
For the Ordinary Form we show which passages the Lectionary appoints, with the scripture itself from a public-domain translation. The official English translations used at Mass — the readings of each country’s Lectionary and the prayers of the Roman Missal — belong to their publishers, so every day links to the official readings instead. The 1962 propers are given in full, in Latin and English, because those texts are free to share.
We also make printed liturgical wall calendars: twelve months of feasts, saints and vestment colours for your calendar and Missal, printed to order and posted to you.

How accurate is it?
Calendars are calculated, not typed in, so every date from 1900 to 2100 is available. The 1962 data follows the rubrics of 1962 for every year, including years before those rubrics existed. Ordinary Form celebrations follow the national calendar you choose; your diocese or religious order may keep feasts of its own. Where a national feast has proper readings we do not yet hold, the page says so and shows the weekday’s readings.
