“Practicing What We Preach”
Tuesday, October 18, after 9am Mass – in church
This fall, we will begin using a new translation of our current prayer-book. Some of the words we pray during Mass will be different. Many of the words the priest prays will be different. So that we can pray with greater ease as we implement the new translation, we will practice praying with the new texts on the above days. The sessions will also include history and background information on why we are using a new translation.
For questions or more information, contact Kathy Kuczka at 770-475-4501.
