Pope Benedict XVI encouraged priests to use the internet and other means of social communication more effectively. I also find this to be a good opportunity to evangelize, catechize, and apply Catholic teaching to the contemporary situation and to otherwise ruminate. These thoughts are offered only as the ruminations of a simple pastor. With this in mind, please be charitable and pray for me as I pray for each of you in my daily Mass and prayers.

New English Translation of the Mass
At the expense of exposing myself as a total ignoramous, I'd like to commend to all the Roma Locuta Est blog. The author has been doing an excellent job of writing little commentaries on the parts of the Mass and their new translations. Particularly valuable is his knowledge of Latin grammar and his analysis of the new versus the old. I also appreciate his insights as he applies what might be called a literary analysis to the texts. Let me know what YOU think about his contributions. I'm interested in hearing from others.
