MOUNT CARMEL -- After 47 years as a priest, and at least two
decades of straying from the Roman Catholic Missal by ad libbing parts
of the Mass, the Rev. Bill Rowe of St. Mary Church has resigned under
pressure from the bishop.
Why? Because he doesn't agree that a priest should be restricted to the exact words of the Missal, including new changes in the Mass that were intended to more closely interpret earlier Latin versions.
The changes were ordered by the Vatican and took effect in late November.
