Liturgy Committee

 

The Liturgy Committee takes its mission directly from the Constitution on Sacred Liturgy: “To ensure that the faithful take part fully aware of what they are doing, actively engaged in the rite, and enriched by its effects.” The committee assists in the preparation, implementation and ongoing evaluation of the rites of the Church as celebrated in our parish. Our obligation is to maintain the highest standards possible in all areas of worship. The work of the committee is guided by the documents of the Second Vatican Council, post-Councilor documents from Rome and from the National Conference of Catholic Bishops, with special attention given to the writings of the Bishops’ Committee on Liturgy, the Bishops’ Committee on Art and Environment, and the Office of Worship of the Diocese of Wilmington.

    • Gifts Desired:  A desire to enhance the overall worship life of our community.
    • Commitment:  Attend meetings of the committee (generally the first Tuesday of each month, with additional meetings as required) and a desire to work in the background.
    • Opportunity:  To gain knowledge and understanding of the worship life of the Church and share that knowledge with others; to assist our parish fulfill the goal of the Second Vatican Council of “full, active and conscious participation” in the liturgy.
