This week's parish bulletin addresses this very topic.
SILENCE Silence in the liturgical celebrations is an essential component, that enables us to receive the Word of God in our hearts, contemplate it and welcome it with resolutions. It is necessary that we repeat in the heart what we declare with our tongue in prayers, hymns, petitions and Psalms, and what we have achieved in the Liturgy and other liturgical rituals. It is also required that rubrics and liturgical directives take into account these times.
Catholic ping!
