As we approach the implementation of the new Roman Missal on November 27, 2011, many Catholics have questions about what changes they will encounter and why they are being implemented now. In this series of bulletin articles, we try to provide some of the answers to these questions, as well as a framework of faith and worship in which these questions reside. Although some WORDS that we use at Mass may be changing, our FAITH in the Eucharist as the source and summit of our lives does not change.

Each bulletin article is listed by its title and the date it appeared in our bulletin. Click on the link to access the full article.
