In another thread Fr. Deacon Lance wrote:
As for us, you have three things going on with the RDL, translations people don't like, music people don't like and rubrics/omissions that do not conform to the 64 Liturgikon or Ordo Celebrationis. I think those writing letters will win the appeal to allow the 64 Liturgikon to be used. (and some places are still using it anyways) I do not think they will be successful in getting the 07 Liturgikon rescended. So ultimately pastors will be left with the decision based on parish reaction to the RDL and their own tastes. Thank you for this! It summarizes what the clergy and people believe about the RDL. At the beginning of Holy Week it is nice for someone to talk about the light at the end of the tunnel. I pray that the bishops with listen to Rome with one ear and their people with the other. I pray that more people write to Rome.
Everyone have a good Holy Week!
Keep writing to Rome!

Christ is Risen!
During the Great Fast we used the old books for Presanctified. During Holy Week we used the Levkulic books. It was like home week. People who stopped coming because of the RDL were back. The singing was terrific. It was a welcome respite from the plague of the RDL. The Ruthenian Liturgy is far from dead. The Revised Liturgy is very far from being accepted.
Keep writing to Rome!

Pilgrim,
There was no formal announcement. About the second week of lent the pastor and cantor began telling everyone that the existing Holy Week books would be used. Good news spreads fast!
