“Cardinal George announced receipt of the documents in an Aug. 20 letter to the U.S. bishops and issued a decree of proclamation that states, “The use of the third edition of the Roman Missal enters into use in the dioceses of the United States of America as of the First Sunday of Advent, November 27, 2011. From that date forward, no other English translation of the Roman Missal may be used in the dioceses of the United States of America.
