Drawn by desire – An introduction to the Mass

“We may not even be aware of it, but every time we go to Mass, the first reason is that we are drawn there by Jesus’ desire for us” (Pope Francis, Desiderio desideravi, 6).

The liturgy is the most central part of our lives as Catholics, and especially in the Mass we experience the amazing gift of God giving himself to us.

On five Tuesdays, we will explore the deeper meaning of what we celebrate in the Mass. Using “Desiderio desideravi”, a beautiful document on the liturgy published by Pope Francis in 2022, as a starting point, Fr. Daniel will introduce us to the meaning of the Mass.

Dates: 10/9, 17/9, 24/9, 1/10, 8/10. We meet at 7:30 pm in the Englesal.

Come join us in discovering and understanding more about the Mass, and see how you can take actively part in making our CAYAC Sunday masses even more solemn and beautiful.

It is our hope that these meetings will help us found a liturgy group that will take care of the shaping of our Masses. But everyone who is just curious about Mass are welcome to join the meetings.
