The New General Instruction of the
Roman Missal
(GIRM)
Policy for the Diocese of Roseau

One of the marks of the Church founded by Jesus Christ is its unity in both purpose and message.  The Church seeks to communicate that truth in the diverse ways through which it carries its Ministry.  One of the principle avenues through which it does so is its Liturgy.

As sometimes happens with time, certain abuses creep into the liturgy.  Very often they come about with the best of intentions; sometimes in the name of creativity or in response to what seems appropriate or what feels good.  In order to avoid such abuses the Church calls us back to the sense of unity for which we stand.  For this reason it has revised the norms for liturgical practice in the roman Rite for implementation in all Dioceses of the World.
