Archdiocese of Santa Fe Office of Faith Formation

In early March, we received the following notice from Mary Sperry of the CCD/USCCB:
“In light of the health precautions that may become necessary in the coming days and weeks, the USCCB, CCD, and ICEL are waiving any need to request permission to use readings or Mass prayers in a livestreamed liturgy. We are currently working with the dioceses and publishers to make additional resources available.   Please feel free to share with anyone who might need this info. Also, in case it wasn’t clear, this applies to both English and Spanish readings and orations.”
I corresponded with her this morning and learned that the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine and the USCCB have extended this permission to December 31, 2020.

COPYRIGHT PERMISSIONS – I.C.E.L. LITURGICAL TEXTS
