Abstract

These powerful and dynamic images capture a sense of profound seriousness inherent in a liturgical celebration. A sense, however, which Dillard notes may not be taken as seriously as it ought. It is symptomatic of a situation in many liturgical assemblies in the United States and across the world where the faithful gather together to share in events with tremendous impact on defining who Christians are, what their mission is, and what they represent within the world, but which unfortunately may not be perceived or received as such. As a parishioner, when asked of the experience of liturgy in her community, commented, “It seems as though all people want to do is get in to Mass and get it over with!”2 In such instances, it may appear that many Christians find liturgical engagement to be little more than a social or cultural obligation, the full force of which encounter fails to bear upon the them. Louis-Marie Chauvet expresses the same sentiment
成为中的礼仪:欣赏阈限在礼仪参与中的关键作用
这些充满力量和活力的图像捕捉到礼仪庆典中固有的深刻严肃感。然而,迪拉德指出,这种感觉可能没有得到应有的重视。在美国和世界各地的许多礼仪集会中,信徒们聚集在一起分享事件,这些事件对定义基督徒是谁、他们的使命是什么、他们在世界上代表什么产生了巨大的影响,但不幸的是,人们可能并不这样认为或接受。作为一名教区居民,当被问及她所在社区的礼仪经历时,她评论说:“似乎所有人都想做弥撒,然后把它做完!”在这种情况下,似乎许多基督徒觉得礼仪的参与只不过是一种社会或文化义务,这种相遇的全部力量无法对他们产生影响。路易·玛丽·肖维表达了同样的观点
