Kilbrittain  Parish  Bulletin

September    2011

A new edition of the Roman Missal is being introduced later this year. But what is the Roman Missal? The term “Missal” refers to the book that contains all the prayers and instructions for the celebration of the Mass. The scripture readings used at Mass are also part of the Missal but are published separately in the “Lectionary.” The Missal is first written in Latin and this Latin text is then translated into the particular language of the people. In this way, while the Mass may be celebrated in many languages across the Roman Catholic world, it is the same core Latin text that is being prayed by the Church. In Ireland we have been using the current Missal since St. Patrick’s Day 1975. A new edition, the Third Edition of the Roman Missal, is coming into use in Ireland and in other English speaking countries in Autumn (The first Sunday of Advent) 2011. - Prepared by the Nation Centre of liturgy, Maynooth.

To help us with this introduction the changes to the peoples responses and prayers will be introduced on the Twenty-Fourth Sunday of our year (11^thSeptember 2011). The changes will appear on the Mass leaflets from that day. We will also have in the church available for all, the Congregational Cards with the changes in the people’s parts of the new edition of the Roman Missal.

Over time, we will become familiar with the changes but it will take time. We ask for the cooperation and patience of all in this time of transition.
