MGB:_A very contemporary description of a recent series of changes, which is in contrast to the belief by some that the Mass should not change at all. The latter view is ahistorical, for it has throughout the centuries. No one is advocating bringing back the Agape Meal held in the houses of the faithful, which some believe were only conducted by the local overseer/bishop/pastor while others believe could have been conducted more like a Seder, by presiders of either gender. We simply don't know or the knowledge may have been suppressed. Either way, the USCCB can now determine how fast it wants to move. Barring a special meeting, the earliest they can decide is their Annual meeting. They could simply go back to 2010 or adopt the 1998 ICEL that was never implemented or they could decide to study and do nothing. They seem to be good at the latter. We will see what they hear from the faithful. I suspect that we will be saying "and also with you" sooner than many think.
