Celebration Of The Christian Mystery

Liturgy-Sacraments

”It is the whole community, the Body of Christ united with its Head, that celebrates.” Liturgies are not private functions.  The celebrating assembly, the community of the baptized, offer spiritual sacrifices. The ordained ministers act in the person of Christ for the service of all the members.  Servers, readers, commentators, and members of the choir also exercise a genuine liturgical function.  Each person present has an office to perform in the service of the praise of God and fulfillment of His plan. *
