Desiderio Desideravi - The Liturgical Formation of the People of God

Описание: Apostolic Letter of Pope Francis On the Liturgical Formation of the People of God.

This letter to the People of God is ultimately a call to return to Christian unity. The divisions that had developed in our Christian family are a shame to the Body of Christ.

Pope Francis offers the People points of meditation and prayer as well as guidance towards understanding and learning our liturgical heritage. His focus is always to take what is good from the old to enliven the new.

The point I found most prescient is modern people's illiteracy of symbol. This not only exists among the faithful, but the clergy as well. The Enlightenment upturned the old world order to such a drastic degree that most of humanity scoffs at the living out the narrative of Christ: "It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me."

Believe in the Gospel and Believe in your salvation, and believe that the whole world needs to learn of this moment when God became man and died for us. Never has this happened before in history. The only new thing in History is the Incarnation and God's offer to deify us in Christ.
