FAITHFUL GET NEW MASS BOOK
WORCESTER, Mass.--Bishop Bernard J. Flanagan of Worcester (right)
examines the first of the new Mass Books on their arrival at the
diocese where they were used by the faithful for the first time on
Pentecost Sunday. With the bishop are from left, Robert H. Fouhy,
Father Donald J. Gervais and Father Leo J. Barry, all members of
the Diocesan Liturgical Commission which arranged the Mass Book and
published it in conjunction with the Catholic Book Publishing Co.
of New York. The Mass Book, only one of its kind so far in the U.S.,
incorporates all recent liturgical changes and has been designed to
encourage laity participation in the Mass and other liturgical
services.
