Celebrating the Mass & Exploring the Revised Translation
The key to a good celebration of liturgy in School or Parish is “full, active and conscious participation”. With the introduction of new Mass texts imminent we have a unique opportunity to gain new insights into ‘how the liturgy works’ and discover new resources and Mass Settings which will help lift the texts off the page.
Who should attend
This course is for anyone involved or interested in Liturgy – particulary those who have responsibility for planning and preparing liturgies within the context of a Catholic school.
Course Overview
In this course we introduce music and liturgy ideas to help schools and parishes get the most from their liturgical celebrations, highlighting the changes likely when the revised translation of texts used in the Mass are introduced. We also attempt to explore the Mystery of the Eucharist and at the same time de-mystify some of the concepts which shouldn’t be mysterious!
DELEGATES WILL LEARN:
- New songs suitable for use in the liturgy
- A New Mass setting using the newly translated Mass texts
- Why the Paschal mystery is central to the Eucharist
- The background which has led up to the new translation of the Roman Missal being introduced.
- The meaning of the different parts of the Eucharistic Liturgy.
- How each of the parts of the liturgy link together.
- Ideas to foster “full, conscious and active participation”
- Sign language – to interpret songs and to respond to formal prayers.
