RCIA CLASS 10 – INTRODUCTION TO THE LITURGY

I. I. The liturgy is the prayer of Jesus Christ through His whole Church, bringing the power of God to earth. "In the Church's liturgy the divine blessing is fully revealed and communicated. The Father is acknowledged and adored as the source and the end of all the blessing of creation and salvation. In His Word who became incarnate, died, and rose for us, He fills us with His blessings. Through His Word, He pours into our hearts the Gift that contains all gifts, the Holy Spirit." Catechism 1082.









II. The Church uses the liturgical year to order her celebrations, especially the Mass, along the lines of the mysteries of our redemption, centered on the life, death and resurrection of Christ, as well as His return in glory.
