CONGRATULATIONS TO THE FOLLOWING COUPLE WHO WERE MARRIED IN OUR PARISH THIS WEEK:

When & why are we getting a new edition of the Roman Missal?  The new edition of the Missal will come into full use on the First Sunday of Advent, 27th November, 2011.  The new edition is necessary for a number of reasons.  Firstly, in the years since 1975 when our current Missal was published, a number of additional texts have been made available for use in the Mass.  These include additional Eucharistic Prayers, some new Masses of the Blessed Virgin Mary & Masses for over twenty new Feasts of Saints. Secondly, in 2001 the Holy See issued new directives for the translation of the Latin texts.  Translators were asked to make the English text follow more closely the original Latin in its wording and structure.  They were also asked to strengthen the biblical language and images in the texts & to re-introduce some theological vocabulary that may have been lost over they years.  Therefore the new edition of the Roman Missal will contain both new material & a new style of translation.
