The 3rd Edition of the Roman Missal... some perspectives... enjoy!

In 16 days, 10 hours, 54 minutes & 52 seconds (or so), the Church in the United States will implement the 3rd Edition of the Roman Missal. As a priest for over five years, I have enjoyed getting used to praying the Mass out of the Sacramentary. However, I am pretty excited for the First Sunday of Advent on November 26/27 to begin using the 3rd Edition of the Roman Missal. The words contained therein are more close to the Latin, which is the language the Church has been speaking and praying for many many years. It will help bring us all into a deeper appreciation of the Mass and also a deeper appreciation of the Sacred Scriptures. It will take a little while to get used to this new edition of the Roman Missal, but as a Church in the United States, we will all literally be on the same page. Enjoy the following videos to help you to learn even more (Thanks to Lifeteen.com for providing these to the Church & Fr. Robert Barron for his insights):
