Missal launching

Weighing in at 8 pounds, here's the Hawaii Catholic Herald's own copy of the Third Edition of the Roman Missal.

You’ve heard about it. You’ve read about it. Now, it’s here.

This past weekend, Catholics in English-speaking countries around the world implemented the Third Edition of the Roman Missal. In our Nov. 11 issue, we highlighted some ways the Diocese of Honolulu prepared for the revised Missal translation.

Justin Agustin from St. Joseph Church in Waipahu told us about their ‘Roman Missal Team’:

“From there, we collaborated with our Pastor, Fr. Greg to come out with a plan and timeline to catechize our parishioners as well as our ministers.  We had three major Roman Missal Third Edition workshops with our parish in the summer.  Our members have also attended diocese-sponsored workshops for the Roman Missal and Music.  Since then, we have been doing weekly catechesis before the mass.  The music ministry have done monthly workshops to introduce the mass setting music and newly revised chant responses.”

How did your parish do with the new changes? We’re curious as to how Islanders fared with the prayers, music and creed.

Leave us a comment, and let us know how the “Missal launching” went!
