PARISH NOTICES
v IRISH CANCER SOCIETY: the recent collection raised €338.68 in Ardfert and €318.76 in Kilmoyley. Thank you for your support.
v ROAD CLOSURE. Due to the Triathlon event taking place the road between Mounthawk roundabout and Fenit will be closed on Saturday next 13 August from 12noon to 1.30 pm.
v Introduction of the New Translation of the Roman Missal. Is the Mass changing? The structure of the Mass is not changing. The order and the actions of the Mass remain unchanged. The readings at Mass are not changed. However, with the introduction of the new edition of the Roman Missal throughout the English-speaking world, we will all notice a change in how the Mass sounds. The translations of a number of our prayer texts from the original Latin have changed – sometimes by a particular word or in the word order. Prayers that we have become used to reciting by memory now have to be relearned. Prayers that we are used to hearing the priest say will sound different to us. The style of language we will hear and pray may seem more formal to us and perhaps, in parts, more complex. But over time, with the praying of these texts, the sound of the Mass will again become familiar to us. We will begin using the new texts on Sunday 27 November 2011.
