Catholics in the United States will begin using a long-awaited English translation of the Roman Missal on the first Sunday of Advent next year, a leading American cardinal announced Friday.
Setting the missal’s debut for Nov. 27, 2011, gives publishers more than 15 months to prepare texts and allows American dioceses and parishes to educate members, said Cardinal Francis George, archbishop of Chicago and president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
The new text for the missal, which guides Catholics through the prayers of the Mass, was approved by the Vatican in June.
