Chaplain's Message
A new translation of the Roman Missal is set to be used in US parishes on November 27th, the first Sunday of Advent. This is the time we prepare for the birth of our Savior and we will prepare for this with the new revision. For some, the current iteration is the only one they have ever known so the change will be a monumental one. What better way to feel and participate in this most holy time with the new enhanced texts.
Columbia Magazine published an article back in February regarding the topic of the new Roman Missal. Since the release is in the near future, we thought it would be good to share the article once again.
