On August 20, 2010, Cardinal Francis George, OMI, President of the USCCB, announced that the new translation of the Church's ritual book for Mass entitled, The Roman Missal, third typical edition, will be implemented on the First Sunday of Advent in 2011 (November 27, 2011).
In order to facilitate this new text's adoption in the Diocese of St. Petersburg, we will be drawing on the three year catechesis on the Eucharist we have recently concluded. The US Conference of Catholic Bishops has also produced a web site devoted to educating about the new translation. The Office of Worship is providing more local resources.
Living Eucharist
is a diocesan pastoral initiative begun by the Most Rev. Robert N. Lynch, Bishop of St. Petersburg, to foster a deeper experience and understanding of Eucharist - to paraphrase St. Augustine: "we are called to be what we receive." This catechesis continues with the implementation of the new translation of the Mass.
