New Translation of the Mass

Becoming Familiar with the New Mass Translations

As you know, we will begin using the revised English translation of the Roman Missal on the first Sunday of Advent this year.  This is an opportunity for us to be renewed in our love and appreciation for the Mass.  But it will also require some getting used to.  As an aid to the transition, here are some helpful websites with many good resources and articles.

Who says technology and liturgy can’t go together?  A helpful app is available for your mobile device explaining the new translation of the Mass.  It is called “The New Mass.”  Also consider pre-ordering a “Daily Roman Missal” (November 2011 edition!) a book containing all the readings and prayers from Mass, which can help you follow along with the Mass each Sunday.  Available on Amazon.com and through Our Sunday Visitor publishing.
