Office of Liturgy

 

 

 
In addition to assisting the Bishop in his ministry as high priest and promoter of the liturgy in the diocese, this office serves as a resource to the parishes and ministers of the diocese as they strive to promote the full, conscious, and active participation of all in the liturgical life of the Church.

Roman Missal Project

The U.S. Bishops have completed their review of the new translation of the Roman Missal, and the final texts have been approved by Rome. While we wait for the U.S. Bishops to set the date for implementing the new Missal, we encourage you to begin learning about the new Missal by visiting our diocesan website’s page dedicated to this project. Not only does our webpage link to the U.S. Bishop’s site, but it contains a number of other resources as well.
