Dromahair ~ Killargue ~ Newtownmanor inarv Time New Translation of the Roman The new translation of the Missal will come into full use at Mass between 1 th September and the First Sunday of Advent this year. Since 1975, when the present missal was published, several new texts have been made available:- Eucharistic prayers, New Masses of the Blessed Virgin Mary & Masses for over 20 new Feasts of the Saints ~ including St. Pius of Pietrelcina ~ Padre Pio, Edith Stein & Maximillian Kolbe. New translations have been added which follow more closely the original Latin ~ pleasing some, annoying many others. The new translation also attempts to follow more closely biblical language and images. Across the English speaking world, the new edition of the Roman Missal will contain both new material and a new style of translation. GENERAL / CHURCH NOTICES. [A] Special Collection for the Holy Land ~ Next Saturday 3rd & Next Sunday 4th September. Christians in the Holy Land are facing a time of crisis with numbers falling from 40% of the population just 40years ago to as little as 1.4% today. Soon there will not be sufficient Christians to look after the Holy Places! The continuing conflict has badly affected local Christians who are ethnically Arab and so treated as hostile and the economy has been devastated: religious tours to their area are difficult & Bethlehem has relatively few visitors today. The separation wall has even made matters even worse. The Diocese ofKilmore is holding a special collection for the Holy Landon the weekend of Saturday 3* & Sunday 4f" September. It will be taken up after Communion at Masses in all 3 Churches in this parish on that weekend. Your contribution will help out in various ways, including the upkeep of churches & parish centres in Nazareth, Bethlehem, & Jerusalem, schools in Bethlehem & homes for the elderly in [B] Annual Pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of Knock ~ Saturday 17th & Sunday 18th September:A coach for the Saturday Ceremonies will leave from outside the Library in Manorhamilton at 10.00am on the 17th September & travel via Killargue and Dromahair for the ceremonies which begin at 2.00pm in the Sfc John Care & Rest Centre.
