I have a Missal with the Mass in Latin on the left page and English on the right. I still say the LATIN "Agnus Dei," the Pater Noster and "Domine, non sum dignus..."

Since Jesus spoke Aramaic, perhaps the Mass SHOULD be in that language. It's dead as well.

Latin was the language of the conquerors, the ROMAN conquerors, wasn't it?

I wish I had that. As I remember it, the Latin Mass Missal over the course of 52 weeks would essentially be your Catechism as well.

Religious Instructions would be unnecessary as all the youngsters needed to know could be had by attending Mass.

“Neo-Aramaic languages are spoken today as a first language by many scattered and usually small and isolated communities of Christians, Jews, and Mandaeans of Western Asia,[9] most numerously by the Assyrian people in the form of Turoyo, Assyrian Neo-Aramaic and Chaldean Neo-Aramaic that have all retained use of the once dominant lingua franca despite subsequent language shifts experienced throughout the Middle East. The Aramaic languages are now considered endangered.[10]”
