LITed - LITURGY EDUCATION NEWS

Conversion, Healing, Penance

Greetings to all from Liturgy Brisbane.


The liturgical season of Lent, which is fast approaching, is a particular season of reflection, repentance, conversion, penance and renewal so that we might prepare ourselves to better celebrate the Resurrection of Christ at Easter.  
The Plenary Council of Australia recently decreed that the Bishops’ Commission for Liturgy institute a sustained program of catechesis of the Sacrament of Penance to promote an understanding of the conditions for, and appropriate practice of, each of the three forms of the Rite of Penance (Decree 5, Art. 3).

This issue of Lit Ed explores the Sacrament of Penance alongside the various ways in which the Church's life and liturgy provide opportunities for repentance and forgiveness.

With very best wishes for a blessed Lenten Season from all of us at Liturgy Brisbane.
