Changes to the Roman Missal

Vatican issues final text of the Roman Missal, Third Edition, for the Dioceses of the United States of America
New Words: A Deeper Meaning, but the Same Mass

Please click here to see the changes to the people's parts of the Mass.

Please note: These changes do not take effect until November 27, 2011. (one year from now) Over the next year, Fr. Mark will be teaching about these new changes.

May the implementation of the revised Roman Missal be a time of deepening, nurturing, and celebrating our faith through the renewal of our worship and the celebration of the Sacred Liturgy.
