Gain an insider’s understanding of the Roman Missal’s new translation.

Since its 2011 Advent introduction, English-speaking Catholics began hearing, speaking and praying with new words.

If you are like most thoughtful Catholics, you have questions about how and why this new transitional came into being.  This insightful course is for you.

Join Monsignor Michael Magee, Chair of the Systematic Theology Department of Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary in Pennsylvania, to explore the new translation of the Roman Missal. Msgr. Magee observed the translation process throughout its various stages from within
