HOW WE CELEBRATE
Restoring Creation
The Father sends his Son and his Spirit to accomplish his “plan of mystery” (Eph 3:9). This is “the economy of salvation,” a new reality, a new and genuine way of existence free from the corruption of evil and death. |
The Spirit and the Bride say, ‘Come!’
The Spirit, the Church’s Living Memory, connects us with the Risen Christ.
It is He who gives life to the proclaimed Word and allows us to hear the Voice of Christ.
It is He who transforms the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ
It is He who empowers us with the necessary energy (Grace) to live out in the world what we celebrate.
By His power, we the Church enter into the ‘fellowship of the Holy Spirit’ (2 Corinthians 13:13)
making us the visible sign (Sacrament) of God’s divine life (Trinity).
