Struck me that we are a living, breathing, evolving church . . . and this is one example of that motion forward. Change is great, it's the transition that's tough. (I think Matthew Kelly said this.) It's awesome that you and Fr. Bob are leading us through it.

This boy suggested that: a) it's just a matter of getting comfortable with the language of the new translation; and b) if we are able and willing to accommodate Shakespear's language, why should we struggle with the fitting beauty and complexity of the Mass, which warrants the greatest words ever written.<br /><br />Nice perspective, I thought.<br /><br />--Deacon TomDeacon Tomnoreply@blogger.com
