Many Kiroma speakers have moved to urban centers (Dar es Salaam, Arusha) or overseas (Europe, USA). They cannot always find a Kiroma-speaking parish. A PDF allows them to follow Mass online from their home parish via Zoom or YouTube, praying along with the familiar language of their ancestors.
To help you verify your PDF, here is a sample of the Kyrie (Bwana, rehema) in Kiroma as it should appear in any authentic Misale Ya Kiroma Pdf :
Bwana, rehema. (Lord, have mercy) Bwana, rehema.
Kristo, rehema. (Christ, have mercy) Kristo, rehema.
Bwana, rehema. (Lord, have mercy) Bwana, rehema.
And the Gloria (Utukufu kwa Mungu) opens with:
Utukufu kwa Mungu juu ya mbingu, na amani duniani kwa watu wema utakao.
If your PDF matches this, you have the correct version.
