Best complete prayer book? The whole 9 yards!

[esieffe]

I apologize in advance, it this is not the correct place for this thread, and for an already documented question.

I have a St. Joseph prayerbook, but what I desire is a single prayerbook with a large collection of Catholic prayers, novenas, feast days, the WHOLE 9 Yards! I don’t have the money to buy a bunch of different books, I would rather get one book.

PLEASE reply with your suggestions and thank you so much for your time!

Note that I don’t know what is in other prayer books, so I can’t compare. But I LOVE my “Blessed Be God” Catholic prayer book. It’s Pre Vatican II, and the prayers are written using formal English (think KJV) but it’s beautiful. They still have re-prints available. It’s very complete, has morning, daily, evening prayers, prayers before and after confession, prayers before and after Mass, novenas, devotions for holy days and feasts, devotions for the seasons of the year (advent, lent, etc), many other devotions, and prayers for pretty much every occasion. 748 pages, it’s the size of a pocket Bible.

Although I’m not a fan of pocket-sized books, I have to agree that Blessed Be God is the most complete prayer book you can find. It doesn’t contain every single prayer, but it is comprehensive and contains more prayers than any other prayer book I’ve seen.

Thank you for the recommendation! Just saw it reviewed on the publishers website, sounds perfect.

I have to echo that. That sounds like what I am looking for. Pocket size worries me a bit, I hope I can read the print!
