What will the process of implementation look like?
Once the recognitio is granted, the process of final editing and publication will commence. The staff of the Secretariat of Divine Worship reviews and approves all proofs submitted by publishers not only of the Missal itself, but of participation aids such as hymnals and seasonal publications, prior to publication. In addition, the Bishops have begun a process of preparation and catechesis. Training for priests, music ministers and other liturgical leaders (liturgy committees and liturgical commissions) as well as formation for all Catholics will help to ensure the successful implementation of the new text.
