Magisterium
on
the Sacred Liturgy
"I f
you are the body and members of Christ, then it is your
sacrament that is placed on the table of the Lord; it is your
sacrament that you receive. To that which you are you respond
'Amen' ('yes,' it is true!') and by responding to it you assent
to it. For you hear the words, 'the Body of Christ and respond
'Amen.' Be then a member of the Body of Christ that your Amen
may be true." (St. Augustine)

The Worshiping Assembly at Mass
(Based
upon Roman Missal Formational Materials provided by
the Secretariat for the
Liturgy
of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops,
©2002.)
The
celebration of Mass is a corporate act, an act of the whole assembly
gathered for worship. All the particular ministries serve this
corporate function (GIRM,
no. 27). In the Mass, the Church is joined to the action of Christ,
the high point both of the action by which God sanctifies the
world in Christ and of the worship that the human race offers to the
Father, adoring him through Christ, the Son of God, in the Holy
Spirit (no. 16). We are joined to this divine action through
baptism, which incorporates us into the risen Christ. This action,
which lies at the center of the whole Christian life (no. 16) is not
initiated by us but by God acting in and through the Church as the
body of the risen Christ. It becomes our action only to the extent
that we give ourselves to this mystery of redemptive worship. The
liturgy is designed to bring about in all those who make up the
worshiping assembly a participation of the faithful both in body
and mind, a participation burning with faithful, hope, and charity
(no. 18). To the extent that we are able to participate in this way,
the work of redemption becomes personally effective for each of us.
By such participation, the General Instruction says, we make the
actions and prayers of the liturgy our own; we enter more fully into
our personal communion with Christ's redeeming act and perfect
worship (see no. 54, 55, etc.).
In the celebration of Mass the faithful are a holy people, a chosen
people, a royal priesthood: they give thanks to God and offer the
Victim not only through the hands of the priest but also together
with him and learn to offer themselves. They should endeavor to make
this clear by their deep sense of reverence for God and their
charity toward brothers and sisters who share with them in the
celebration (no. 95). They should become one body, whether by
hearing the word of God, or joining in prayers and liturgical song,
or above all by offering the sacrifice together and sharing together
in the Lord's table (no. 96).
Because the whole liturgy is a corporate act of the gathered
assembly (GIRM no. 34; Catechism of the Catholic Church no. 1144),
there are certain parts of the Mass that are to be done by the whole
assembly, the congregation of the faithful and all the ministers, in
order to express the corporate nature of this act. Through these
actions, the entire congregation of the faithful joins itself to
Christ in acknowledging the great things that God has done and in
offering the sacrifice (no. 78). These acts include:
- Listening with
reverence to the readings of God's word (GIRM no. 29);
- Engaging in the
dialogue of prayer through acclamations, greetings, and
responses to spoken and sung prayers (no. 34-37) in a tone
suitable to the text (no. 38);
- Joining in an
action through common postures and gestures (no. 42);
- Participating in
communal silence (no. 45);
- Because of their
baptismal dignity, letting themselves be included in the
offering symbolized by incensation (no. 75);
- Participating in
the greeting of peace as a sign of ecclesial communion and
love for each other (no. 82);
Participating in
specific spoken prayers and other texts, namely:
- the formula of
general confession during the penitential rite (no. 51);
- the profession of
faith (no. 67-68);
- the general
intercessions (no. 69);
- the Lord's Prayer
(no. 81);
- the prayer of
humility before sacramental communion (no. 84);
Participating in the offering during the Eucharistic Prayer, which
is spoken or chanted by the priest, but in which all should join as
the Church to offer the "spotless Victim to the Father in the Holy
Spirit" and "offer themselves and so day by day to surrender
themselves, through Christ the Mediator, to an ever more complete
union with God and with each other, so that at last God may be all
in all" (no. 79f);
Participating in liturgical song, because singing is a way of
expressing both the corporate nature of the act of worship and the
intense union to be achieved between God and the Church in Christ
through the Holy Spirit. It is a union so intense and total that it
is described as a union between lovers whose nature is best
expressed vocally in song (no. 39). Singing is also an act which
unifies and focuses the individual (no. 39), thus encouraging that
"participation in body and spirit that is conscious, active, full,
and motivated by faith, hope, and charity" (no. 18). These songs and
acclamations are normally to be sung, in whole or in part, by all
the participants:
- opening liturgical
song (no. 48);
- Kyrie (no. 52);
- Gloria (no. 53);
- Responsorial psalm
(no. 61);
- Gospel acclamation
(no. 62);
- Song at the
preparation of gifts (no. 74);
- Sanctus, memorial
acclamation, and Amen (no. 79, 151);
- The Lord's Prayer
(no. 81);
- Lamb of God (no.
83);
- the optional
psalm, canticle of praise, or hymn after communion (no. 88).
For those
who are properly disposed (no. 80), full, active, and conscious
participation is expressed in partaking in the Holy Communion of the
Lord, receiving in the one bread consecrated at this Mass the Lord's
body and blood, in the same way that the apostles received them from
Christ's own hands (no. 72.3).
Hearing the Word of God
When
the Scriptures are read in the Church, God himself is speaking
to his people and Christ, present in his own word, is
proclaiming the Gospel. (GIRM, n.29) These words from the
General Instruction of the Roman Missal set before us a profound
truth that we need to ponder and make our own.
The words of Sacred Scripture are unlike any other texts we will
ever hear, for they not only give us information, they are the
vehicle God uses to reveal himself to us, the means by which we
come to know the depth of God's love for us and the
responsibilities entailed by being Christ's followers, members
of his Body. What is more, this Word of God proclaimed in the
liturgy possesses a special sacramental power to bring about in
us what it proclaims. The Word of God proclaimed at Mass is
'efficacious' that is, it not only tells us of God and God's
will for us, it also helps us to put that will of God into
practice in our own lives.
How, then, do we respond to this wonderful gift of God's Word?
We respond in word and song, in posture and gesture, in silent
meditation and, most important of all, by listening attentively
to that Word as it is proclaimed. Following each reading we
express our gratitude for this gift with the words 'Thanks be
to God' or, in the case of the Gospel, 'Praise to you,
Lord Jesus Christ,' and it is appropriate that a brief
period of silence be observed to allow for personal reflection.
Following the first reading we sing the Responsorial Psalm, a
meditation on God's word through the inspired words of one of
the psalms from the Psalter, the Bible's prayer book.
The Gospel is the highpoint of the Liturgy of the Word. The
readings from the Old Testament tell us of God's promises and
his preparation of his people for the coming of his Son; the
epistles and other pre-Gospel New Testament readings offer the
reflections of St. Paul and other contemporaries of the Lord on
the life and message of Christ; in the Acts of the Apostles we
have a history of the early Church. We believe that all
Scripture, the Old and New Testaments, is inspired by the Holy
Spirit, but the Church has always given special honor to the
Gospel because in the Gospel we have not simply the preparation
for and prefiguring of Christ, nor reflections on his message,
but the words and deeds of Christ himself. The proclamation of
the Gospel is surrounded with marks of respect and honor: the
Gospel is read by an ordained minister, the deacon, or, when no
deacon is present, by a priest; the Book of the Gospels is
carried aloft with honor in the entrance procession and placed
on the altar until the Gospel reading to show the unity of
Scripture and Eucharist, of the table of the Word and the table
of the Christ's body and blood; just before the Gospel is read
the Gospel book is carried in procession to the ambo to the
accompaniment of an acclamation sung by the people; it may be
incensed before the reading and is kissed at its conclusion;
finally, all stand as the Gospel is proclaimed. Through this
posture and through the honor paid to the book containing the
Gospel, the Church pays homage to Christ who is present in his
Word and who proclaims his Gospel.
What then must we do to properly receive the Word of God
proclaimed at Mass? The General Instruction tells us that all
must listen with reverence to the readings from God’s word. (GIRM,
no. 29) and it provides that those who read the Scriptures must
be truly suited to perform this function and should receive
careful preparation, so that the faithful by listening to the
readings from the sacred texts may develop in their hearts a
warm and living love for Sacred Scripture. (GIRM, no. 101)
The key word in all of this is listening. We are called to
listen attentively as the reader, deacon or priest proclaims
God's Word. Unless one is unable to hear, one should not be
reading along with a text from a missal or missalette. Rather,
taking our cue from the General Instruction itself, we should
listen as we would if Christ himself were standing at the ambo,
for in fact it is God who speaks when the Scriptures are
proclaimed. Carefully following along with the printed word can
cause us to miss the gentle voice of the Holy Spirit, the
message that the Spirit may have for us in one of the passages
because we are anxious to 'keep up,' to move along with the
reader.
Perhaps the best way to understand the readings at Mass and our
response to them is offered by Pope John Paul II in his
Instruction Dies Domini. He encourages those who take
part in the Eucharist, priest, ministers and faithful ... to
prepare the Sunday liturgy, reflecting beforehand upon the Word
of God which will be proclaimed and adds that if we do not, it
is difficult for the liturgical proclamation of the Word of God
alone to produce the fruit we might expect. (n. 40) In this way
we till the soil, preparing our souls to receive the seeds to be
planted by the Word of God so that seed may bear fruit.
The Word of God, then calls for our listening and our response
in silent reflection, as well as in word and song. Most
important of all, the Word of God, which is living and active,
calls each of us individually and all of us together for a
response that moves beyond the liturgy itself and affects our
daily lives, leading us to engage fully in the task of making
Christ known to the world by all that we do and say.

"We have come to adore Him!"
Based upon
Roman Missal Formational Materials provided by the Secretariat
for the Liturgy of the United States
Conference of Catholic Bishops, ©2002.
When
the Church comes together in the liturgical assembly to
celebrate the Mass, or any other sacrament, her members do not
gather simply as a crowd, as an amorphous, undifferentiated
group of people. They gather in a variety of ministries and
roles. If we are to understand the significance of these
ministries and roles, we must begin with Baptism, for only one
who through Baptism has been given a share in the priesthood of
Christ is capable of participating in the public worship which
is the liturgy of the Church. In fact, the Constitution on the
Sacred Liturgy of the Second Vatican Council tells us that
participation in the liturgy is the right and duty of all the
baptized.
The
first qualification, then, for any participant in the
celebration of the Eucharist is that he or she has been baptized
into the Body of Christ, the Church. Each time the members of
the Church gather to worship, they do so because their baptism
demands this of them. While all share in the priesthood of
Christ which delegates them to worship, some members of the
Church are called by God to serve in the ministerial priesthood
as bishops and priests. Bishops and priests are privileged to
act in the liturgy in the very person of Christ, on behalf of
his people, pronouncing the most sacred prayers of our faith,
presiding over the celebration of the sacred mysteries,
explaining God's Word and feeding God's people on the body and
blood of Christ. A bishop has the added responsibility of being
the chief shepherd, the principal liturgist of his diocese and
in that role is the successor of the Apostles. Others by God's
grace are ordained to the ministry of deacon. In the celebration
of the Mass deacons proclaim the Gospel and assist the bishop
and priest in exercising their sacred duties.
In
addition to the ordained ministries there are roles in the
liturgy which are exercised by lay people who place their time
and talent at the service of the liturgical assembly as acolytes
(altar servers), lectors, extraordinary ministers of the
Eucharist, cantors, choir members, instrumentalists, leaders of
song and ushers. Others contribute their time and talent to
planning and organizing the liturgy, to keeping the church and
the vestments, vessels and appointments clean and well-ordered
or to providing decorations that reflect the spirit of the
liturgical feast or season.
The
General Instruction makes it very clear that this variety of
offices and roles is desirable and should be maintained. In fact
it goes so far as to state: ... all, therefore, whether they are
ordained ministers or Christian faithful, in fulfilling their
offices or their duty, should carry out solely but completely
that which pertains to them." Not only, therefore, is it
desirable that individuals function in roles of service at Mass,
it is clear from the Instruction that if a deacon, for example,
is present, the priest celebrant or a concelebrant should not
read the Gospel. And the lector should not also take on the role
of server and/or extraordinary minister of the Eucharist. There
is a wide variety of services to be performed, and it is
desirable that different individuals exercise those services so
that the talents and gifts God has placed within the Christian
community are fully utilized and these roles of service are not
monopolized by a few.
It is
not sufficient, however, simply to have a "warm body" filling a
given role. Those engaged in liturgical roles need to be
well-prepared for those roles and to know how to carry them out
with reverence, dignity and understanding. Obtaining the proper
preparation requires a further gift of time on the part of the
person being prepared as well as on the part of those in the
parish responsible for the training of liturgical ministers.
Finally, the practical task of assigning individuals to
particular Masses and organizing the distribution of roles is
another indispensable element in the fabric of well-ordered
liturgical ministry in a parish.
But
before individuals can be prepared for liturgical roles, there
must first be individuals who are willing to assume those roles.
All the baptized need to understand that part of their duty
regarding liturgy is to accept some responsibility for the
liturgy, to place themselves and their God-given talents at the
service of the liturgical community whenever possible. If
liturgy is a duty as well as a right, then part of that duty for
those able to undertake these tasks is the responsibility to
assume such key roles as those of lector, server or acolyte,
extraordinary minister of the Eucharist, usher, choir member,
etc. . Whether one brings up the gifts at the Presentation,
reads the Word of God, assists with the distribution of
Communion and brings the Eucharist to those unable to be present
at Mass, serves at the altar, provides music that augments the
joy, solemnity and festivity of the celebration or serves the
assembled community as an usher, he or she is contributing to
the worship of the community and fulfilling the responsibility
that comes with Baptism.
Not all
members of the parish community will have the time, energy,
strength or ability to serve in these roles, however,
individuals must be careful not to excuse themselves too easily.
And it might also be helpful for us to reexamine our situation
every so often. The time available to a business person or to
parents with young children may be very limited. But eventually
business people retire and children grow up, leaving those
individuals with more free time at their disposal. What is
important is that all understand that the celebration of liturgy
is not just the responsibility of the pastor, although he is
delegated by the Bishop to oversee the liturgical life of the
parish. Pastors need the help of their people, the people who
are serious about living out their baptismal right and
responsibility to worship.
Finally, this catalogue of specialized roles might give the
impression that those who are not exercising one of these roles
are free to sit back passively and simply let the liturgy happen
around them. Nothing could be further from the truth. Those who
come together for liturgy do not have the luxury of acting as
passive "pew potatoes," waiting for all to be done for them. The
liturgy is not only their right, it is their duty, their
responsibility, and that responsibility includes full engagement
throughout the liturgical celebration. The baptized faithful who
form the congregation are called to join in praise and
thanksgiving in song and spoken word; to listen attentively to
God's Word, to exercise their baptismal priesthood in prayer for
the Church, the world and all in need during the General
Intercessions. In the Liturgy of the Eucharist they join their
prayer to that of the priest celebrant, offering Christ the
Victim, not only through the hands of the priest, but also
together with him and offer themselves as well (GIRM n.95) and
their participation culminates in the reception of the Body and
Blood of the Lord, the sacrament which unites them more fully
with Christ their Head and with one another.
In
their sincere efforts to participate, those present minister to
the priest celebrant, to others who serve in liturgical roles,
and to one another. Their attention and active engagement in the
celebration can draw from the priest celebrant and the other
ministers the best they have to offer. Their enthusiastic song
and verbal responses made with conviction can encourage others
to sing and respond; their very presence at the celebration of
Mass when so many other enticing options might have been chosen
instead supports and reinforces others who have made the same
choice.
The
liturgy, then, is about the action of God's own people, each
with different offices and roles, each office and role, from
that of bishop and priest to that of usher and sacristan, one of
service, not of privilege, a mirror of Christ who washed the
feet of his disciples and instructed his followers to imitate
his example of service.
