Hunting for changes in the Roman Missal

[Peter Jones]

I have circulated information about the changes in the rubrics of Holy Week to diocesan clergy and musicians.

I am now preparing my first Nuptial Mass with the new translation - the Penitential Rite has been thrown in the bin.

What are you discovering?

More Nuptial Mass -

The Missal now fails to note that there are three distinct 'first paragraphs' to the Nuptial Blessing (A) - one of which the celebrant chooses in harmony with the Liturgy of the Word.
Well, that's what the former red instructions said.

Surely we are not now supposed to utter a thrice "O God who…" are we? (I should say that there are now options A B and C for this blessing but the thrice "O God who…" in option A seems very odd)

I do like the inserts in the Eucharistic Prayers for the newly-wedded couple.

No, it hasn't. It was never there (although lots of priests, and Redemptorist Publications assumed that it was and did it/printed it anyway).

The Missal is simply clarifying what was always the case. Interestingly, they have also specified that the Penitential Act is omitted in a Mass for the Conferral of Baptism, but not, for some unfathomable reason, for Confirmation (clearly an oversight).

LOL - rather than making a comparison with the St Luke Missal, I am looking at the Redemptorist Marriage Book. Oh well - back to the drawing board. Thank you SC.
