Of particular note in the Diocese of Birmingham are those generous and self-sacrificing people associated with the good work of the Eternal Word Television Network.
The bishop of a diocese in which a televised Mass is produced has the responsibility to see that liturgical law is carefully observed, especially regarding the liturgical feasts and seasons, the use of approved liturgical texts and translations of Scripture, proper vesture and the ministers' fulfilling their proper roles in the celebration.
In the preparation of these norms I consulted with my brother bishops in whose dioceses the broadcasts of the Mass from Birmingham are received, the National Conference of Catholic Bishops' Committee on the Liturgy and its secretariat; and the cardinal-prefect and officials of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments.
