Catholic Mass - Program Help

LDamiani

Hi Everyone,

So I'm trying to think about my programs and their format.  I'm having a full Catholic Mass and I don't think I'll have enough space on my programs (Their Layered so only one page is for the ceremony) to write out the full Mass order, step by step.  I was thinking of just highlight the important parts, like Liturgy of the Word, Marriage Rite and Liturgy of the Eucharist.

Anyone have any recommendations or ideas related to this?

Hello!  The sticky at the top of the page has a link to a website with some program templates.  Mine sounds like it was a bit like yours, though (mine was a two-sided 4x9 page).  The front of mine had the order of the mass, and this is what I did (using some sample programs from my church).  I'll try to format it like it was on the real program:

Entrance Rite

It worked out fine.  My MIL, who was very skeptical, raved on and on about how nice the programs were.
