Random Quote

“The renewal also showed clearly that the formulas of the Roman Missal had to be revised and enriched. This was begun by Pope Pius XII in the restoration of the Easter Vigil and the Holy Week services, which formed the first stage in accommodating the Roman Missal to contemporary mentality.”

— Pope Paul VI (1974 Sacramentary)
