It's Not a New Mass. It's a New Translation

November 02, 2011 by Pat Gohn

Continued from Page 2

Again, the Mass isn't changing, but the English translation in its new form should help bring deeper meaning to our participation when we embrace it mindfully.

Be patient. Give it time. We're all in this together.

Some resources for personal study:

USCCB: Welcoming the Roman Missal
Changes in the People's Parts
Catholic TV's series: "Preparing for the New Roman Missal"—video recordings of a symposium for priest
OSV's Roman Mission revision readiness plan—helpful suggestions on how to prepare for the new translation

More resources available for purchase:

A New Translation for a New Roman Missal—DVD set featuring talks by Msgr. James Moroney of Vox Clara
*The Church's Common Treasure—*a booklet produced by the USCCB containing eleven essays exploring the history and purpose of the new translation.

NOTE: Pat Gohn welcomes Pauline Books and Media Associate Editor, Jaymie Stuart Wolfe, to the Among Women podcast. Together they talk about Jaymie's story of faith and introduce an inexpensive children's resource for learning the New Roman Missal, The Mass Explained for Kids (Pauline Books and Media, 2011).
