Should you wish to do away with missalettes, here's something better.
Liturgy
Liturgy is the exercise of the priestly office of Jesus Christ wherein the glorification of God and the sanctification of humanity, the whole public worship is performed by the Mystical Body of Jesus Christ, that is, by the Head and His members, and is signified by signs perceptible to the senses, and is effected in a way which corresponds with each of these signs. (SC 7)
The liturgy is the summit toward which the activity of the Church is directed; at the same time it is the font from which all her power flows. (SC 10)

Good Liturgy
Good Liturgy is prepared in the context of and by the community.
