"Liturgical Catechesis and Catholic Identity."
Liturgy is formative, contributing to Catholic Identity.

Such integration draws upon the inductive as well as deductive operations of both liturgy and catechesis.

Those who participate in liturgy also need to reflect on the liturgical experience and the languages of liturgy in relation to life experience. Such liturgical language goes beyond official prayers and assembly responses. READ MORE
