On the First Sunday of Advent, 2011 (November 27, 2011),
Roman Catholics in the United States will begin praying and singing
a new English translation of the Latin Missale Romanum, or Roman Missal.
Some parts of the Mass will remain the same; others will change.
On Friday, August 20, 2010, Cardinal Francis George, president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops announced that we have received the final text of The Roman Missal.
Several changes have been made to the text. You can find those changes, as well as helpful information, by visiting the bishops' Web site here.
Please visit WLP's Web site to find resources to assist you in your ministry.
Please visit "Gotta Sing, Gotta Pray," the blog of Dr. Jerry Galipeau, WLP's associate publisher. Tuesday and Thursday editions focus on the new translation of The Roman Missal: gottasinggottapray.blogspot.com
