What To Write In A Baby Congratulationsenvelope

Neocatechumenal is the right time. Been approved and Communion standing

Approvazione definitiva, in un testo modificato rispetto alla precedente versione, per gli Statuti del Cammino: fra due settimane l'annuncio ufficiale. Integrate le norme relating to the liturgy. The news, released on the internet for days, also confirmed to Korazym.org.

ROME - After a long wait, but something had to happen. Eleven months after the end of the first five years of experimentation, after repeated false alarms, and ads for weeks and months that have populated the web, you really got the final go-ahead to the Statutes of the Neocatechumenal. After a first brief announcement published on May 20 last Catechumenium (site maintained by Galaxy neocatecumenale a member of the Way, but not the official voice of the same), the news was confirmed by the Vatican in recent days of "The Newspaper "Andrea Tornielli, that two and a half years ago anticipated the text of the letter sent to leaders of the Way of the Congregation for Divine Worship on the liturgy. Korazym.org also now confirmed the news: the statutes were approved in a final and official announcement from the Holy See is expected between 10 and 12 June.

The text was adopted with some changes compared to version experimentum effect June 29, 2002 for five years: one of these - is that which Blog Andrea Tornielli was placed in evidence - about how to deploy the Communion during the celebration Neocatechumenals: secondo quanto è dato sapere, sarà ricevuta dagli appartenenti alle comunità non più stando seduti su una sedia, ma in piedi di fronte al celebrante che passerà con il pane consacrato e con il calice del vino consacrato. Si tratta di una modifica alla prassi del Cammino già richiesta dalla Santa Sede e dal papa in persona due anni e mezzo fa, quando (prima con la lettera firmata nel dicembre 2005 dal cardinal Francis Arinze per la Congregazione del Culto Divino e poi direttamente con il discorso che Benedetto XVI rivolse alle comunità neocatecumenali ricevute in udienza in Aula Paolo VI il 12 gennaio 2006) era stato chiesto al Cammino di uniformarsi a quanto previsto nei libri liturgici riguardo a numerosi punti, fra i quali la distribuzione della Communion (on that point were given two years' time expired in December 2007 with nothing actually changed in the celebrations Neocatechumenals).

in the text of the new statute have found space for those liturgical norms is certainly at the time of its publication will be interesting to understand in detail what will be the new practice with respect to the distribution of Communion, and if - for example in relation to the "procession to the altar "required by the liturgical books - have been granted some exemptions, as well as the early reported by the Vatican of" Il Giornale "(for which the faithful are awaiting the arrival of the priest standing for la Comunione, senza muoversi in processione) farebbero intendere. Nell'arco di due settimane queste e altre domande troveranno la loro risposta: a predisporre il relativo decreto sarà il Pontificio Consiglio per i Laici e immediatamente dopo vi sarà la cerimonia di consegna dei nuovi Statuti.

CLIMA - La parola "fine" ad una "telenovela" durata mesi arriva in un clima quanto mai segnato, nel dibattito sul web (specchio di una realtà presente anche nelle parrocchie e nelle diocesi) da una evidente e preoccupante polarizzazione fra "adoratori stucchevoli" e "massacratori spietati": una delle sfide nell'applicazione dei nuovi Statuti (e delle parti relative a liturgia e catechesi) sarà quella di superare quel muro di divisione that over the years has grown around the Neocatechumenal. With the official handover of the Statutes of fact begins the most important game.

on the Web - From the point of view of information, one should note that (Catechumenium separately) to Andrea Tornielli was not the only voice to publish advances on the fate of the Statutes of the Way: even the site has in fact addressed the issue Petrus , but backed a "final" differently, in that their approval still experimentally, and for a period of seven years (seven years of "purgatory"). A report, published in the signing of Gianluca Barile on the morning of May 26th (the day after than the Tornielli final confirmation of approval), which was amended in the course of the day: in the second version of the article by Petrus statutes were approved in a final but with the exception of those parts on the liturgy and catechesis, which green light would be limited to a period of seven years. "For the lords Kiko and Carmen, the glass is half full, the synthesis of Barile. A version in front of which the Vatican correspondent of the newspaper reacted with a few lines: "I confess to being a bit 'tired of having to use items that I feel completely unfounded: I can confirm that all the statutes were approved in a final, with some minor modifications, and that there are parts about the liturgy and catechesis approved only experimentally.
