Archbishop Chaput

Archbishop Chaput, of Denver U.S.A. began a Liturgy Series on 11 September 2002, describing it as "The first in a series of articles about the Catholic Mass and the new Roman Missal".

The newspaper articles are at archden.org/archbishop/ab04.htm

Here are links to the individual articles in the Liturgy Series:

4. Deacons: Ministers of the Word, altar, charity

5. Mass shared dialogue between priest, faithful

6. Introductory Rites
