CardinalSaysLiturgyHelps ToUniteSoulsWithGod

Assisi,Italy,Sept.20.-TheCardinalin chargeoftheChurch'sofficialworshipsaid the"principalandonlyreason"forthemany reformsintheliturgymadebyHisHoliness PopePiusXIIishisdesirethatthe"faithful livetrulythelifeofChrist."

TheheadoftheSacred CongregationofRitessaid thePope'sreformshave notbeenmotivatedbythe demandsofthetimes,new desiresortastes,oradesiretoreturntoantiquity.

"Themotiveandcause of heeveryliturgicalrule," said," iswhatever servestounitesoulsto God "

HisEminenceGaetano CardinalCicognanimade thepointillopeningtheinternationalCongressof Past Liturgyhere.

TheniVoftheCongresswas "The Pastoral-Liturgical RenewalinthePontificate ofPiusXII."

Theliturgyistheofficial publicworshipofthe Church-primarilythe Mass,butincludingtheothersacramentsandthe divineoffice.

Theliturgicalmovements inthevariouscountries havebeenchieflyconcerned withfocusingattentionon thisofficialpublicworship andtheroleofthelaity init.

Thebasicaimofthe congress,saidCardinal Cicognani,wastoreview the"admirableactivitiesof PopePiusXIIinthefield ofpastoralliturgy."

Hesaidsuchareview wasbeingmadeina"spirit ofloyaltyandreverence whicheveryoneofthe faithfuloughttonourish towardthesupremeShepherdwhoguidesus."

Inhisaddress,Cardinal Cicognanisaidtheaimof pastoralliturgy"ispreciselythatofleadingthefaith- fultoformaverycompact unionintheMysticalBody ofwhichChrististhe Head."Hesaiditsaimis alsotoleadthefaithful "toparticipateinanequal mannerintheliturgical rites."

Itwouldbeamistake saidtheheadoftheSacred CongregationofRites.to seeinthevariousliturgi- calreformsanostalgiafor ancientformulas,"akind ofromanticismbasedon aestheticormysticalmo- tives,asentimentalismfor thingspast."

"No,absolutelyno,"saidtheCardinal."Theprincipal and,wemightsay,theonly reasonofsuchreformsand re-orderingsconsistsinthe ardentdesirethatthefaithfullivetrulythelifeof Christ."

Hespokeoftwo"bold steps"thatthePopehas takentoenablethefaithfulto"takepartwithmore easeinthesacrificeofthe altar andtoexercise their'royalpriesthood.'"

"Irefer,"saidCardinal Cicognani,"totheevening Massesyindtherestored ordooWHolyWeek."He eontinued:

"TheeveningMasses seemedlikeasuperfluousnovelty;buttheirpastoral characterwasseenimmediately.Experiencehas sincedemonstratedhow usefultheyareforthose whocannotfulfiltheSundayprecept,orcanfulfilit onlywithgreatdifficulty."

However,headded,the faithfuldoparticipatein anequalmannerinthe HolySacrifice.Forthis reasontheirparticipation andunderstandingofthe ritesshouldbeencouraged

"bywiseandconstanteffort." "Soalsowasthenew ordoofHolyWeekinspired bypastoralconsinderations. Farfromweakeningordisturbingthepietyofthe faithful,thenewordohas increasedthatpietyinan admirablemanner. "Eventhosewhodidnot seemfavourablehavehad tochangetheirmindsinthe faceofthesplendidreality. Theythemselveshaveaffirmedthattheoutcomehas beensuperiortoeveryex- pectation.

"Again,andIinsistonce moreonthispoint,themotiveofthereformwasa deeplyanxiouspastoral solicitudeandnot,assome mayhavethought,adesire -praiseworthyinitself,for thatmattertocallbackancientceremoniestonew life."

CardinalCicognanistressedtheimportanceofMediatorDei,PopePiusXII's encyclicalontheliturgy. Hecalleditthe"Magna Carta"oftheliturgy.

Hesaidtheliturgistshad cometogetheratAssisi "nottostudyproblemsand offersuggestions,butto emphasise lawsandordinancesemanatingfrom PopePiusXIIinhisuntiringactivityasfatherand teacher."

Hesaidtherewouldbe

nodebates"properlyso called"inthecongressbecausethe archical""eminentlyhiercharacterofthe congressdoesnotpermit them.

Headdedthatthis"does notexcludethepossibilitythatvariouscommittees,on theoccasionofthisassembly,maytakeunderexaminationvariousproblems connectedwiththesacred liturgy."

TheVaticanofficial praisedtheLatinlanguage asasignoftheuniversality andunityoftheChurch.

Hasaidtheinabilityofthe faithfultounderstandthe SacredRitesinLatin"does notnecessarilydemandthe substitutionofthevernacular."

PopePiuscamefromhissummerhomeatCastelgandolfoespeciallytoreceivetheliturgistsandto deliveramajoraddresstothem.Inithenotedthat theworkoftheliturgyistheworkoftheentire Church,hierarchyandlaityalike.

ThePopehadaspecialcommendationforth-?. "balanced"wayinwhichtheLiturgicalMovement leadershavepressedforadaptationoftheChurch'sat worshiptotheneedsofmoderntimesandatthe sametimeheldfirmtothevitaltraditionsofthe past.Hesaid:

"Inliturgicalmatters,asinmanyotherfields, onemustavoidtwoexaggeratedviewpointsconcerningthepast:blindattachmentanduttercontempt.Immutableelementsarefoundintheliturgy, asacredcontentwhichtranscendstime;butone alsofindschangeable,transitory,attimesevendefectiveelements.Itseemstousthatthepresentdayattitudeofliturgicalcirclestowardthepast isquitebalanced."

TheHolyFathergavehisaddressinFrenchin thehugeHallofBenedictions.The1.300membersof theclergyandlaitywhohadcomefromAssisiwere ledbyfiveCardinalsandbybishopsfromevery partoftheworld.Inhistalk,thePontiffspoke ofthedevelopmentoftheliturgyinthepresentas wellasinthepast.Astothepresent,hesaid:,

ThePopethensaid:"WesincerelydesiretheprogressoftheLiturgicalMovement,andwishtohelp it,butitisalsoOurdutytoforestallwhatevermight beasourceoferrorordanger."

FatherAntonellifears thatattendanceattheEasterVigilMassonHolySaturdaymaydepletethe solemnobservanceofEaster Sunday.Thisexpectation wasnotborneoutlocally.

Assisi,Italy,Sept.25.-Catholicsasa wholehavebeenseparatedsolongfromthe commonprayeroftheChurchthatitwill requiregenerationsofre-educationtobring thembacktoactive,genuineparticipation inherworship.

SpecificallyconcerningthenewGoodFridayliturgy,withtheeliminationofthe"MassofthePresanctified"andtheprovisionforCommunionof thefaithful,thecongregationofficialsaidthere waswidespread"amazementatseeingforthefirst timeafunctionsomovinganddramatic."

Asforextra-liturgicaldevotionsofGoodFriday, FatherAntonellisaid:

Thiswasthejudgmentthatarankingofficial oftheSacredCongregationofRitesvoicedinanaddressbeforetheInternationalCongressonPastoral Liturgyhere.Theofficial,FatherFerdinandoAntonelli,O.F.M.,stressed,however,thatthe"patient workofre-education,spiritualandtechnical,"to restorethefaithfultothetrueliturgicallife"must begin."

TheFranciscanscholarisheadofSectionIIIof theCongregationofRites,whichischargedwith revisingtheofficialliturgicalbooksoftheChurch. FatherAntonellispokeonthenewreformofthe HolyWeekliturgyandonprospectsforotherchanges inthefuture.

ThesucessoftheHolyWeekreformcanbecalled realandenduring"onlywhenthepeople,allthe peopleandnotjustalittlechosen,privilegedgroup," feel"theneedratherthanthedutytoparticipate withtheirwholeheartandsoulinthesacredmysteries,"hesaid.

"Indeed,"hesaid,"onlywhenthepriestshavee profoundgraspofthetheologyoftheRedemption. whichisunfoldedintheliturgyandespeciallyin theliturgyofthesedays,onlythenwilltheybeable toinstillintothefaithfulthatdeepconvictionof theinestimablevalueofthesemysterieswhich arousesineachoneofthemthedesireandthewill tolivethemagainwithChrist."

TheFranciscanremarkedinthisconnectionthat theInstructionaccompanyingtherevisionofthe HolyWeekOrdo"isdirectedfirstofalltothepriests, andinsistsinimperativetermsthattheymustbe thefirsttostrivetopenetrateintothespiritofthe reformedliturgyofHolyWeek."

ButinordertobringthefaithfultoanunderstandingoftheiractiveroleintheChurch'sworship,hesaid,theremustbesystematicinstruction. FatherAntonellicontinued:

LentIsTheTimeForInstruction

"Themostopportunetimeforthiscatechesis,as itwasinantiquityandintheMiddleAges,isstill tcday,astheInstructionsuggests,thetimeofLent. Infact,Lentensermonsaretraditional,andthemost obviouigeneralthemeforthesesermons,atheme alwaysnewbecauseitisinexhaustible,isprecisely thegreatworkofhumansalvation,whichhasits highpointinthePassion,DeathandResurrection ofChrist,theloftymysterywhichisperpetuated intheliturgythroughoutallages."

Thepriestemphasisedthe"definitelyChristocentricatmosphere"oftheliturgy.Andhestressed theneedtoenkindlethefaithful'sawarenessthat "Christisatthecentre"throughoutHolyWeek, addingthatwhenthefaithfulhavereallygrasped whatEasteris,"theneverySundaywillbeconsideredasanEastercontinuedthroughouttheyear.

FatherAntonellicalledtheHolyWeekreform thatwasinauguratedthisyear"themostimportant actinthehistoryoftheliturgyfromSt.PiusV (whoreignedfrom1566to1572)toourday."He calledthisrevisionoftheliturgyimperative,explaining:

"Overthecourseofcenturiessomepreciouselementswereinevitablylost,manyhadbeendeformed, otherswereaddedorsuperimposedwithoutany plan;besides,formalitieshadtakenoverintheceremonies,creatinganartificialclimate,quitetheoppositeofthatimmediateintuitionofeveryliturgical functionwhichistheindispensableconditionfor anactive,enlightenedparticipationofthefaithful.

"Inorderthattheliturgymaybe,asitshould, bothworshipofGodandschoolofChristianlife, itisnecessarythatthefaithfulbeabletotakean active,consciouspartinit Thepeoplemustbe abletosee,understandandfollowthedevelopment oftheaction.Theirinterestmustbearoused,and theymustbeledtoperformtheirpart."

FatherAntonellisaidthatreportscominginto theSacredCongregationofRitesfromthewhole Catholicworldindicatethat"theliturgicalreform ofHolyWeekinthisfirstyearwastrulysuccessful onalargescale."Hesaidthatvariousbishops hadreported"somepracticaldifficulties,"andhe indicatedthatsomeminorrevisionsmightbeforthcoming.

"Thereisnoreasonwhytherecannotbeasolemn WayoftheCrossorthehouroftheAddolorataor theprocessionofthedeadJesusaftertheliturgical actionoftheLord'sPassionanddeath;onthecontrary,thiswillbeameansofprolongingthemeditationonthemysteryofGolgotha.

FearOfEmptyEasterSunday

"Ontheotherhand,somethingthateveryonehas knownmustbedropped,withfewexceptions,is theThreeHours'Agony,theTreOre.Thefactis thatthesolemnliturgicalactionofGoodFriday recallspreciselytheagonyonthecrossandthe deathoftheSaviour.Itdoesnotmakesenseto puttheextra-liturgicalTreOrefirstandthenbegin theliturgyofthePassionanddeath.Thiswould reallybeaduplication,inwhichthetrueliturgical actionwouldbecomesomethingaddedon,deprived ofinterestandeffectiveness."

TurningtotheHolySaturdayliturgy,FatherAntonelliremarked:"Manywerereallyworried,and perhapsarestillworried,thatafterhavingheard theMassoftheEasterVigilcelebratedatmidnight, thefaithfulwouldnotfeelobligedtoreturnfor theMassonthefollowingday,_withtheresult,which wouldcertainlybedeploe,thatthechurches wouldbealmostemptyforthesolemnMassofEaster dayitself."Thereis"somebasis"forthisconcern. thepriestsaid.Butheadded:

"Thefactremains,however,aspointedoutby manybishopsintheirreports,thatpreciselywhere theEasterVigilwascelebratedatmidnight,the numberofthefaithfulpresentthenextdayatthe greatMassofEasterwasnotonlynolessthanthe numbertheyearbefore,butoftenmore."
