This handy question-and-answer booklet is just what you need to understand why the Mass is changing, and what those changes will be.
Inside, Dr. Edward Sri concisely explains the “whats” and the “whys” behind the new translation of the Mass, addressing the important changes taking place in the Liturgy.
Included is an invaluable tear-out reference card that details the new prayers and responses for the laity, designed for use during Mass.
The guide provides answers to a number of questions, including: Why do we need a new translation? When will we start using the new Mass texts? What are some of the benefits of the new translation? What changes are being made and much more.
