(1902-1981) was born in Birmingham and attended Stonyhurst, the Society of Jesus near Clitheroe in Lancashire, England. He joined the novitiate at age 17 and went on to studied chemistry at Imperial College in London. A talented composer and conductor, he played many instruments.
While serving as an army chaplain in France and India during the World War II, Rev. Howell began to use the Dialogue Mass, encouraging participation by his flock. When he returned to England, he became a pioneer in explaining the liturgy to the faithful and encouraging participation pre-Vatican II.
Rev. Howell wrote extensively on the subject in influential and accessible articles, as well as in his book The Work of our Redemption. He presented his famous Liturgical Weeks, which combined doctrine and practice, all over the English speaking world. As liturgy adviser to one of the Vatican II delegates, he produced the English translation of the Constitution simultaneously with its promulgation by the Council in 1963. In 1979, the Archbishops of England and Wales acknowledged his achievements.
Rev. Howell passed away in 1981.ver menos
