New Catholic Bible (First Holy Communion) - Catholic Truth Society

Confused about which Bible to choose? Bewildered by all the different choices? Here is a Bible tailor-made for every Catholic. It will lead you through the exact same English texts that the Church uses at each Mass, with notes and introductions edited by Vatican expert Dom Henry Wansbrough OSB. CTS has created several carefully thought-out editions to suit every need and budget.
This First Holy Communion edition of the CTS New Catholic Bible is beautifully flexi-bound in a luxurious soft-touch white leatherette with attractive gold blocking, gilt edges and red and gold ribbons, an ideal gift for every first communicant. Its compact size and familiar scriptural translation used in the readings at Mass make this a bible that children will treasure not only on the day of their First Holy Communion but also as they grow in their knowledge of the Word of God.
