NEW LONDON, CT  —  Living with Christ, one of the world’s oldest aids for daily worship, has been redesigned to be simpler and more accessible, while offering more content to help busy readers deepen their prayer lives.

“Our readers have been consistent in their requests to give them a Living with Christ that is easier to handle and lasts longer,” said Publisher Joseph Sinasac. “We are doing just that.”

The new Living with Christ comes in a friendly digest size, small enough to fit in the average purse, for easier handling. It also features paperback-style binding for durability.

Inside, readers will continue to find the daily Mass prayers and Scripture readings, along with their favorite daily prayers and reflections. In addition, they will find more articles from well-known Catholic writers such as James Martin, S.J., Joyce Rupp, OSM, and Melannie Svoboda, SND. Readers will also enjoy a new feature, Key to the Word, to help them interpret biblical and liturgical language for modern minds.

For more than 80 years, Living with Christ has provided Catholics with an affordable, accessible aid to participate more fully in daily Eucharist. More and more readers are also finding it an invaluable tool for deepening their own daily prayer life, even if they cannot make it to daily liturgy.

Living with Christ is published in seven countries by Bayard Presse, a mission of the Augustinian Fathers of the Assumption. In the United States, Living with Christ is available everywhere, either for individual subscribers, or as bulk subscriptions for parishes, retreat houses, schools, and religious communities.

The new format for the US edition will be available starting with the April 2017 issue. Existing subscribers will continue to receive their copies as usual.
