The faithful can expect a new edition of the Liturgy of the Hours by Easter 2027, according to Bishop Steven J. Lopes, chairman of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops' Committee on Divine Worship who made the announcement 11 November, during the bishops' fall meeting.

Pope Francis has added the feast day of St Teresa of Kolkata, a "beacon of hope" and an example of loving service to the poorest of the poor, to the General Roman Calendar so that her "Optional Memorial shall be celebrated by all on 5 September every year."

Australia’s Catholic bishops have approved a liturgy which incorporates elements of Aboriginal language and culture. The Mass will now be submitted to the Dicastery for Divine Worship for what is known as “recognitio”, or official recognition by the Vatican.
