Understanding the Revised Mass Texts

On April 28, 2010 news from Rome announced the approval of the revised Mass texts for the English-speaking world. What does it mean for you and your parish community? This booklet will help you find out.

New words. . . deeper meaning, same Mass. You may have heard that there will be some changes to what we hear and say at Mass. Mass will remain the same, but some of the words will be different. Written by Paul Turner, a priest of the diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph, this booklet provides a brief yet deep explanation of how and why the prayers and responses of the Mass are changing. It will help you understand these new words so that you will be able to participate at Mass when the translation is ready to use. Inside you will learn: The new words we will soon say at Mass; The importance and meaning of the words we hear and say at Mass; The rationale and process for translating the prayers of the Mass from Latin into English; The significance of the translation in relation to the parts of the Mass; How deeply the Mass is rooted in scripture. "Simple, clear explanations for the changes to the texts, and insight into the translation process." -Theresa Harvey, Director of the Office of Worship, Archdiocese of Dubuque, Iowa "This booklet will assist you in understanding worship with clarity and will enhance your experience of the Sacred Liturgy, parting the veil in order to glimpse the Divine." Stan Zerkowski, S.F.O., Director of Liturgy, St. Brendan the Navigator, Ormond Beach, Florida
