Q: I’d be keen on your initial response to the news from Rome…see link.

Are we bound to wait for an official translation of the Mass, or can I request a Latin scholar to generate an English translation for use during the 2025 Season of Creation?

Thanks as always for your expert counsel based in fact..

The conferences approve the translations. Perhaps the Australian conference of bishops will permit this temporary one to be used until ICEL completes its work, but until then we’re not supposed to do our own thing.
