The Prayer, Worship, and Sacred Life of the Church
What Is Liturgy?
Liturgy is the public worship of the Church, especially the Holy Mass, the sacraments, the Divine Office, and the sacred seasons of the Church year.
Through the liturgy, the Church worships God, receives grace, remembers the mysteries of salvation, and is formed in the life of Christ.
