Revised novus ordo “Order of Penance” will be obligatory on April 16

The Archdiocese for the Military Services today sent out a notice in regard to a new revised order of penance:

Please remember that the new rite for the sacrament of penance may be used beginning on Ash Wednesday (22 February) and is obligatory from Divine Mercy Sunday (16 April) onward.


Four editions are available for purchase:

 

Catholic Book Publishing Corp

Liturgy Training Publications

Magnificat

Midwest Theological Forum

 

Several media reports have published an incorrect version of the revised prayer of absolution.  The approved version does not include the words “among us”, but reads:

 

God, the Father of mercies,

through the Death and Resurrection of His Son

has reconciled the world to Himself and poured out the Holy Spirit for the forgiveness of sins; through the ministry of the Church may God grant you pardon and peace.

AND I ABSOLVE YOU FROM YOUR SINS, IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, AND OF THE SON, + AND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.

(N.B. What is there that doesn’t change now, except the tradition? Once again, it is the traditional order of penance that remains unchanged. This while everything else in the Church seems to undergo nearly constant change. Ongoing, permanent revolution.)
