Roman Missal v3If you have attended mass at St Clare's in recent weeks then you will have noticed a few changes to the words that are spoken by the priest and the congregation. The changes have been introduced as a result of a new Roman Missal, with the Latin liturgical texts of the church being re-translated into English.

 

 

If, like me you have chimed in with, "and also with you" instead of, "and with your spirit" (and experienced a withering look from Fr C) you may be wondering why the changes are necessary? There are many resources on the Diocesan website and the Liturgy Office for England and Wales, that explain the changes in detail. The video below is an explanation aimed at younger persons and those that minister to them.
