Revised Missal

On November 6th we were joined in studio by Noirin Lynch from Limerick Diocesan Pastoral Centre who lead us through a discussion about the revised translation covering:
  • Why (why us, why now, is it definite),
  • What (the text), and
  • How (how will this affect us, will we be supported, where can we get resources)
Sacred Space 102fm highly recommends the resource page on the revised missal which has been put together by Limerick Diocese. This has many links to other resources and suggested reading as we get used to the new wording of our Mass.

Before focusing on the changes in the Missal, it might be good to reflect on what is Eucharist. Back in May and June 2011 we did two programmes on 'Exploring the Eucharist':
The podcast of the programme on the revised translation is available HERE and the summary of the programme is available HERE.

Some other resources for the revised translation:
  1. Missal changes Part One: Defined by prayer
  2. Missal changes Part Two: The Gloria and the Creed
  3. It is not a new Mass, it is a new translation
  4. The Advent of our Attentiveness
Fr Robert Barron of the Word on Fire Ministry also has a short video about the revised translation:
