Neocatechumenal: Yellow press conference for the wine, sitting or standing? Here's how it went ...

Chronicle of a press conference and what appears to be a misunderstanding. Kiko's what he said to reporters a few hours after receiving the new state? He really said that you will receive the consecrated wine sitting down? Here are the words of the initiator and then what happened Sunday in the first celebration in Porto San Giorgio. Father Mario: "Bread and wine sitting"


ROME - A "yellow", sometimes born without anybody noticing. Kiko Arguello, during the press conference that greeted the final approval of the Statutes, has said or not said in the communities of the Way you will receive the consecrated bread and wine consecrated in foot seduti? Ha detto o non ha detto che nulla cambia nella Comunione al Calice e che i neocatecumenali si metteranno in piedi solamente per ricevere il pane? No, non lo ha detto. O, quantomeno, chi scrive proprio non lo ha sentito. Eppure alcune testate, e assai autorevoli, hanno riportato, se non proprio una frase virgolettata, per lo meno quel concetto: solo il pane consacrato si riceverà in piedi restando al proprio posto. “La comunione – scriveva ad esempio Zenit - in base alla pratica abituale delle comunità continuerà ad essere ricevuta sotto le due specie e viene distribuita dai ministri nell'assemblea, al posto della processione dei fedeli che si svolge in genere nel rito romano. Questa forma viene mantenuta negli Statuti definitivi, but to receive the Bread of the faithful should stand before the minister. Not so the Chalice, which will continue to receive from a sitting position. " Even Cathecumenium.it, site managed by a member of the Way (it was the first to break the news to final approval of the Statutes, on 21 May), writes: "It changes the distribution of the Blood of Christ, who, besides being confirmed , handing the chalice is carried out to the faithful sitting in place. " Yet, many argue, the new statutes in Article 13 is clear: "As regards the distribution of Holy Communion under both species, the neocatechumens receive it standing, remaining in their places." It 'obvious to all that the text of the statutes does not distinguish between bread and wine consecrated and the act of receiving the Eucharist is expected to foot. Moreover, at least from the doctrinal point of view would not be justified in any way so obvious a difference between bread (to be received standing) and wine (to be received seated).

What happened then at the press conference? Kiko's what he said? Until, eventually, a recording could shed light on the event and the exact words spoken by the founder in response to questions from reporters, the impression (and hope) the writer is that it was simply a misunderstanding. Referring to other articles for the full range statements of Kiko (interesting ones on the catechism, that is, the volume on the Guidelines for the teams of catechists), we see in detail what happened with regard to the Communion.

After a long introduction, during which Kiko has outlined a brief history of the Way, a journalist's question at the beginning of the Way to illustrate the differences between the old and new statutes, particularly with regard to Communion. Kiko said leaving "the beginning" and "origins", trying to explain that the reasons for which the Way has so far received Communion while seated. "We have so far always done from a sitting position, and not contempt - he said - but because for us it has always been very important to communicate with the blood. In fact, we carry out a community catechesis based on the Jewish Passover, with unleavened bread to signify slavery and exit from Egypt and the cup of wine to signify the Promised Land. " And here, opening a long period, the initiator has summarized his catechesis on the last supper over the bread and wine: "When in the Passover dinner, you discover the bread it comes to slavery, when it comes to the Promised Land, discover the cup, the fourth cup. Between these two moments there is a dinner that year in which Jesus said "This is My Body" (Signifying the breaking of human selfishness and slavery to the devil) and "This is My Blood" (to signify the creation of a new exodus for all mankind). Later - continued Kiko - Christians take away dinner and get together the bread and wine. Now, we have a lot of people away in the Way by the Church, not catechized, and signs of Unleavened Bread (the breaking of bread) and wine we give visibility to those meanings. " "We chose to take communion seated - Kiko said approaching the heart of the matter - especially to prevent spills on the floor of the Blood of Christ. Our fear was that if you put Wine on the ground if it had happened three times, we would have been reported and there were the forbidden. " Instead, the faithful seated, they have the time - said Kiko - to "accept the Goblet calmly and without sudden movements, to bring it to his mouth, to communicate with ease and in a solemn way." "Jesus was also sitting as sitting," said Carmen specified to its right. Meanwhile his father Mario Pezzi noted that the original decision had been taken to communicate seated in agreement with the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Cardinal Mayer, Prefect between 1984 and 1988.

At that point, once explained the origin and motivations that drove him to receive bread and wine sitting, Kiko has expanded the theme, going to talk about Arinze letter (called a "catastrophe", see other article) and the meetings with the pope, during which Benedict XVI had requested a dispensation for a caution before reading the resonance (or echo of the words) before the homily, and advance the exchange of peace, not only in the Communion without walking the procession to the altar, but each remaining in place. Here Kiko has only ever spoken of "Communion standing, and never of" bread "or" wine ". Arguello has in fact highlighted in particular the fact that the pope had given the go-ahead to the kind of compromise that provides for First Communion standing, as required by the Congregation for Divine Worship, and the other, however, exempts the Way from the procession, which instead required Arinze's letter. "Now you have to fight with the Pope Arinze, Kiko cried in conclusion, without specifying anything - once again - about alleged differences between" bread "and" wine ". And besides, reporters who listened, it became quite obvious and natural - in the presence of a text of the statute so explicit and clear - for "standing in the Communion" was meant as much bread as the wine.

followed, in a press conference, some "steps in language, with English journalists who asked to speak to the initiator of the Way in English to explain again the part related to concessions by the Holy See had about introductions, resonances, exchange of peace and Communion, as well as the fall of the provision (contained always in the Arinze letter) of the parish Mass attendance in at least one Sunday a month. It came out a question and answer in many voices (the press conference is coming at the end), in which some Italian journalists in the final barrage of questions, they expressly requested addition to the bread even if the wine would be from now on then got to his feet. It 'hard to remember the individual moments, but then point that Kiko has responded with a "We'll see, will decide the individual bishop," which probably has some relations with those reported by the media. A response to Kiko, which some journalists - among them also the writer of these lines - have interpreted as referring to those parts of the celebration neocatecumenale which remain subject to decisions of the diocesan bishop.

In fact, the Statutes of the Way Art. 13 states: "The Neocatechumenals celebrate the Sunday Eucharist in the small community, after the first vespers of Sunday. This celebration takes place in accordance with the provisions of the diocesan bishop. " Therefore subject to the explicit directives issued by the Holy See and any handouts, everything else is subject to the bishop. With regard to the Eucharist, however, as noted, the words of statutes are crystal clear: "As regards the distribution of Holy Communion under both species, the neocatechumens receive it standing, remaining in their places." Really seems to be little room for any "loopholes".

loophole that of the rest, as we have already written, do not seem to serve. As is confirmed two days after the press conference by the same father Mario Pezzi (with Kiko and Carmen, which is the international team responsible for the Neocatechumenal) during the Eucharistic celebration held on Sunday Neocatecumenale June 15 at the center of Porto San Giorgio, in the presence of Cardinal Rylko, president of the Pontifical Council for the Laity, is the bread that the wine has been received under the new rules that will be expanded over time (a few weeks, according to tradition oral) to all the communities along the route. In detail, then, came the moment of communion the priest celebrant, as always, will say: "Blessed are invited to the table of the Lord: Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world" and the faithful respond with the classic "O Lord I am not worthy to receive you but only say the word and I shall be healed. " Then the celebrant will the breaking of bread and the distribution thereof. Will move him to the place of the individual believer, who remained standing hand you hands forward: on the left hand, the celebrant will lay the piece of unleavened bread. The faithful, standing and with bread in hand, wait until it is completed the distribution of the Eucharist to all, until the celebrant, who returned to his post, says: "The body of Christ to watch over us eternal life, amen" . At that point all, standing at the same time, communicate. Having done that, and the traditional silence, take a seat. At the time of the consummation of the bread is finished, the celebrant says: "The Blood di Cristo ci custodisca per la vita eterna, amen” e berrà dal Calice, stando in piedi, con i fedeli seduti. A quel punto, inizierà la distribuzione del Sangue di Cristo: il sacerdote si recherà al posto di ogni singolo fedele, il quale si alzerà in piedi vedendolo avvicinarsi e prenderà il Calice – in piedi – per comunicarsi. Immediatamente dopo averlo fatto, tornerà nuovamente seduto, mentre il celebrante continuerà il giro dei fedeli distribuendo il Vino consacrato ai fedeli che di volta in volta si alzeranno per bere il Vino. Una volta terminato il giro, la celebrazione continuerà secondo consuetudine. Questo è quanto, al momento. Il dilemma pane/vino e in piedi/seduti sembra avere i contorni di a misunderstanding: speaking of wine to get seated, Kiko was referring to the past, trying to explain the reasons for a practice that will now change, not this one. This, of course, unless the records of the press conference did not make clear who wrote the words that are literally escaped. Beyond words

costs in this as in every other press conference, however, clear that it will be very easy to understand what the guidelines launched by the team of the Way: the communities are scattered all over Italy and the celebrations Neocatechumenals - the require the States - "shall be open to other believers." So, in a short time, just take a Saturday night free from other commitments and go see for yourself.

Neocatechumenal. Communion standing, and the Bread and Wine

In detail here is the new mode of distribution of the Eucharist: the faithful will stand both the body and blood of Christ. After the "yellow" press conference. Changing operational in all the communities after the calls of catechists.

ROME - Communion standing for Neocatechumenal community, both the consecrated bread and wine for consecration: the change you just made the final status of the Way, delivered on 13 June by the Pontifical Council for the Laity, will commence operations over the next few weeks in all communities of the Way in the parishes scattered throughout the world. The new rules will apply to distribution of the Eucharist - as established by the statutes - for both the consecrated species, with no distinction between one another, as at first seemed to some to understand.

In fact, during the press conference following the delivery of the Statutes, the founder Kiko Arguello had highlighted the factors that originally led the way to provide for the sitting Communion, especially as regards the cup: it was especially the practical concern that you would pay on the ground Blood of Christ, con il rischio che venisse poi proibita la sua distribuzione al Calice. “Decidemmo allora, d’accordo con la Congregazione del Culto, che prendere il vino con calma, seduti, bevendo in modo solenne, fosse la modalità migliore”. Una preoccupazione che ancora oggi, in verità, è presente, e sulla quale l’iniziatore non ha dato – durante la conferenza stampa – una parola definitiva, spingendo non pochi cronisti (anche fra le testate più autorevoli) a riportare che nulla sarebbe cambiato nella distribuzione del Vino rispetto al passato, e che dunque solamente il pane azzimo sarebbe stato ricevuto dal fedele in piedi.

Questa interpretazione è però smentita dai fatti e dallo stesso Father Mario Pezzi, who with Kiko and Carmen is the team responsible for the international Neocatechumenal. The priest, in fact, contacted by Korazym.org, explains that during the Eucharistic celebration held Sunday, June 15 at the center of neocatecumenale Porto San Giorgio, in the presence of Cardinal Rylko, president of the Pontifical Council for the Laity, the bread and the wine were received in the manner that will be extended to all communities along the route.

In detail, the celebrant, as always, will say: "Blessed are invited to the table of the Lord: Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world" and the faithful respond with the classic "O Lord I am not worthy to receive you but only say the word and I shall be healed. " Then the celebrant moves to the breaking of bread and the distribution thereof. Will move him to the place of the individual believer, who remained standing hand you hands forward: on the left hand, the celebrant will lay the piece of unleavened bread. The faithful, standing and with bread in hand, wait until it is completed the distribution of the Eucharist to all, until the celebrant, who returned to his post, says: "The body of Christ to watch over us eternal life, amen" . At that point all, standing at the same time, communicate. Having done that, and the traditional silence, take a seat. At the time of the consummation of the bread is finished, the celebrant says, "The Blood of Christ watches over us for eternal life, Amen" and drink from the cup, standing, sitting with the faithful. At that point, will begin distributing the Blood of Christ: the priest will go to the place of each individual believer, who will rise up seeing him get close and take the Cup - on foot - to communicate. Immediately after, will be back again seated, while the celebrant continues the faithful of distributing the consecrated wine to the faithful who in turn will rise to drink the wine. Once the tour ended, the celebration continue according to custom.

This mode is true for small communities, generally no more than fifty people. For large assemblies, particular those in which participants had to be hundreds if not thousands, it is plausible that not only the wine, but the bread will be consumed immediately, without waiting for everyone to have in hand an expectation that, in the presence a large number of people, it might be improper. Even then, however, the faithful will receive the bread that is consecrated wine while standing, to sit down immediately after release.

As to the timing, the changes will be communicated to the community Cammino secondo i consueti canali previsti, basati sulla tradizione orale: ecco allora che le comunicazioni in merito saranno date ai catechisti alla prima occasione utile, che nella maggior parte dei casi sarà quella delle convivenze di inizio corso previsto al termine dell’estate, con l’inizio dell’autunno. In alcune zone, però – Roma è fra queste – ci saranno già in precedenza delle convivenze di fine corso, dove le novità potrebbero essere immediatamente comunicate. Ad ogni buon conto, è plausibile che nelle singole comunità – o nella gran parte di esse – si dovrà aspettare fino a dieci, dodici settimane prima di vedere le novità, a meno che i singoli parroci o i singoli Bishops agree to immediately apply the new rules, without waiting for the time frame of the Way. In some parishes this actually happened, even in the celebration of Saturday, June 14. In both cases, however, a regime Communion is received standing, and under both species, as is prescribed in order to tell the truth very clear - paper sings - Article 13 of the Statutes approved just "As regards the distribution of Holy Communion under both species, the neocatechumens receive it standing, remaining in their places."

Neocatechumenal here is the liturgy. The "confrontation" as Kiko

The initiator of the Way said in a press conference with the latest liturgical stages, with meetings with the pope and the arrival of the letter from Cardinal Arinze: "A disaster." From now on Communion under both species and standing, but without the procession.

ROME - Communion standing in the two species, but without any procession. It confirms the introductions before the readings, the resonances between the Gospel and the homily of the priest and advance the exchange of peace, as is the case in the Ambrosian Rite: here it is the Eucharistic celebration of the new community of the Neocatechumenal after the approval of the statutes by the Pontifical Council for the Laity. With a basic approach as relevant as ever: the celebrations Neocatechumenals Saturday Night "are part of the Sunday liturgical service of the parish and are open to other faithful" (art. 13).

With the revision made after the expiry of the version to experimentally, the standard on the Liturgy have become an integral part of the Statutes, in a real tug of war between the Way on one side and the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments dall’altro. Ne è venuto fuori un incontro a metà strada, che rispetto alle celebrazioni di tre anni – quelle che precedevano le norme contenute nella lettera inviata dal cardinale Arinze nel dicembre 2006 – modificano in parte la distribuzione dell’Eucaristia, lasciano le monizioni, le risonanze e lo scambio della pace anticipato e inseriscono invece tutte quelle parti del messale romano (il Credo, il Gloria, l’Orate Fratres, l’Agnus Dei) che non siano coperte da una esplicita concessione da parte della Santa Sede. “E’ il riconoscimento– dice Kiko Arguello nella conferenza stampa successiva alla consegna dello Statuto - della prassi liturgica del Cammino, la cui ecclesialità risulta fortemente Enhanced "means the initiator speaks of a" bomb "to underscore the importance of, and while it states that the inclusion of the liturgical celebrations Neocatechumenals parishes will also cause the fall of the limitation of the Congregation for Divine Worship involved the participation of the faithful of the communities in the parish Mass on Sunday "at least once a month," "as if our celebrations - said Kiko - were minor, or something else." "The reality - he says - is that in recent months, the congregations have discussed and talked a lot, and surprisingly we have come to meet, and have improved the statutes. "

statutes that now, Article 13 stated that: "The Eucharist is essential to Neocatechumenate, as a post-baptismal catechumenate lived in small communities. The fact Eucharist completes Christian initiation. The Neocatechumenals celebrate the Sunday Eucharist in the small community, after the first vespers of Sunday. This celebration takes place in accordance with the diocesan bishop. The celebration of the Eucharist on Saturday evening Neocatechumenal communities are part of the Sunday liturgical parish and are open to other believers. In celebration of the Eucharist in the small communities follow the liturgical books approved by the Roman Rite, except for charter defines the Holy See. Regarding the distribution of Holy Communion under both species, the neocatechumens receive it standing, remaining in their places. The celebration of the Eucharist in the small community is prepared under the guidance of the priest, by a group of community Neocatechumenal, preparing brief commentaries on the readings, choosing the songs, providing the bread, wine, flowers, and cure decorum and dignity of the liturgical signs. "

E 'the founder - in the press conference - to recount in detail the journey over the years, the negative surprise in the face provisions occurred in December 2006 with the letter from Cardinal Arinze, the confrontation with the Congregation for Divine Worship, until the meeting with the pope and concessions obtained. It starts looking more importantly, that of Communion. "We have so far always done from a sitting position, and no disrespect, but because for us it has always been very important to communicate with the blood. In fact, we carry out a community catechesis based on the Jewish Passover, with unleavened bread to signify slavery and exit from Egypt and the cup of wine to signify the Promised Land. When the Passover supper, you discover the bread it comes to slavery, when they speak the Promised Land, discover the glass, the fourth cup. Between these two moments there is a dinner that year in which Jesus said "This is my body" (to signify the breaking of human selfishness and slavery to the devil) and "This is My Blood "(to signify the creation of a new exodus for all mankind). Later - Kiko continues explaining the reasons of the importance of Communion under the species of wine - the Christians take away dinner and get together the bread and wine. Now, we have a lot of people away in the Way by the Church, not catechized, and signs of Unleavened Bread (the breaking of bread) and wine we give visibility to those meanings. We chose to go to communion, that sit above all to prevent spills on the ground movements in the Blood of Christ. The faithful can calmly accept the chalice, takes him to the mouth and communicate with ease and in a solemn way. " "Jesus was also sitting as sitting," explains Carmen.

"In 2005 we were received by the pope - continues the story of Arguello - and we asked him to help the entire liturgy neocatecumenale. In detail, Kiko says, "we have expressed the need for the pope in the Eucharist of the small communities were first allowed before the homily every believer could do its resonance, an echo of the word: it is important that the young, modern girl, (and 70% of those in the Way is young) to share what he tells them that word. And 'consistently, all this with the fact that we teach them that the Word is proclaimed for him, that this Gospel is for you, that God is speaking to you, he should apply that Word to his life. If you remove the resonance, we said to the pope, make us a great evil because they teach people to put themselves in the light of the Word. " "In addition to this - continues the story of Kiko - we asked the pope introductions, introductions to the readings and the exchange of peace, and in small communities, dove tutti si conoscono, diventa molto importante e una cosa davvero seria. Anche la Conferenza episcopale americana e quella spagnola hanno chiesto la dispensa per anticipare il segno della pace, ma non l’hanno ottenuto: noi invece si. Sulla Comunione il papa ci disse: “Parleremo”, e non ci disse nulla. E poi arrivò la lettera di Arinze”.

Accolta ufficialmente con “gioia”, quella lettera fu per il Cammino un vero shock, e oggi lo dicono apertamente: “La lettera di Arinze, che concedeva le monizioni, le risonanze e lo scambio della pace, ma chiedeva di uniformarsi alla Comunione prevista dai libri liturgici – era per noi una vera catastrofe, dal momento che fare la comunione come tutti, without the two species and with the hosts, and in procession to the altar meant to cancel any sign of catechesis that was being done, as well as cancel the concessions received by Pope John Paul II. We said: Sir we are lost! - Kiko continues recalling the moment the letter of Arinze - Lord, it all ends here. " "When, in May 2007, we were again received by Benedict XVI - continues Kiko - asking to receive Communion standing, but remaining in their places, without the procession. "Excellent," he said the pope. As we were very happy. Many have tried and not to approve these standards, but the Lord willed otherwise, and the pope has granted us Communion without standing procession. "Now it's him - he smiles - which has to deal with Arinze."

to clarify what happened during the past eleven months and Father Mario Pezzi, "Arinze on the permission received from two years to conform to the liturgical books expired in December 2007. Was not made any changes so far because we were assured repeatedly that the state was about to leave, which we reported in the ads of Advent and Lent. Someone - Mario continues his father - said he lied, but we were referring only what we were told, we could not invent ... I agree with Bishop Rylko we decided it was good wait for the release of States to implement the new form of communication (standing in place, without procession) in May 2007, we had already agreed with the pope. " But then the final publication of the Statutes has been postponed from month to month, resulting in the situation now sbloccatasi. Second, states his father Mario, "it should be noted that originally the choice of receiving Communion seated was taken in agreement with the Congregation for Divine Worship, led by the then Cardinal Mayer: Polish bishops' conference and the Holy See asked us to account of why we acted that way and we said. When he came to Worship, Cardinal Medina, who had a different orientation, in fact everything stopped. " Cardinal Paul Augustin Mayer was appointed prefect of the Congregation on 8 April 1984 and remained there until 1 July 1988, when he was called to fill the role of President of the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei. A replacement was Eduardo Martinez Somalo (July 1, 1988 - January 21, 1992), in turn followed by the card. Antonio María Javierre Ortas (January 24, 1992 - June 21, 1996). Cardinal Jorge Arturo Medina Estévez, mentioned by Father Mario Pezzi, came to the former Holy Office, 21 June 1996 and remained there until October 1, 2002, when he was replaced by the prefect Francis Arinze.

"But never mind all that - ends Kiko - because things always have their labor and everything is done with a lot of suffering: the important thing now is to rejoice in the fact that the pope has confirmed that we are a reality in the Church which is a gift of the Holy Spirit to help the Church in the new evangelization: So far everything was in Perhaps we were to experimentally, but the pope has the charisma to confirm the faith and he did. The Way is an ecclesial reality. "

Neocatechumenal: and reflection? Kiko: "I agreed a long time"

The Guidelines for catechist teams passed" a sieve "by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and approved by Ratzinger in 2003. Now - Kiko says conference Print - "the pope's desire is to be published. " The details ...


ROME - and reflection? A was approved, which is the text of the catechesis of Kiko and Carmen used as references by the catechists of the Way and which makes explicit reference to the text itself just approved by the Pontifical Council for the Laity? New incoming and relevant from this point of view: according to Kiko will be published soon, since this would be the will of the pope. Catechesis, says the founder of the Way, have been examined and approved, cleared by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. And all this as long ago as 2003, when the leadership of the Holy Office was still Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger.

Kiko Arguello said this during the press conference introducing the new Statutes of the Way. "When Ratzinger at the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith you were asked all of our writings. They sifted through every word that Carmen and I have said it was the transcript of our reflections, we spoke off the cuff, with the heat of the moment, according to the canons of the oral tradition, but we had been recorded and our reflections were recorded and were used as a reference point by catechists. Lo-precise Kiko - these were not to repeat our words, but only use them as a guide, then their catechesi. Quei testi comunque –anche perché nel frattempo uscirono libri che parlavano dell’eresia di Kiko Arguello, e padre Zoffoli mi accusava di essere il Lutero della Chiesa - ci sono stati richiesti dalla Santa Sede, che ha voluto esaminarli tutti: quando veniva individuata una frase poco chiara ci hanno obbligato a cambiare, dicendoci che cosa andava scritto al posto della frase cancellata. Oltre 2200 citazioni del catechismo sono state aggiunte ai nostri testi, che oggi è lo strumento di lavoro dei catechisti. Grazie a Dio non è cambiato moltissimo, e anzi siamo stati lodati per le catechesi sulla croce, sulla sofferenza, sulla sessualità, ecc”.

“Ad esaminare le nostre catechesi – continua Kiko - a commission was chaired by Msgr. Tarcisio Bertone, then secretary of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, coupled with our Commission. They reviewed all approved and everything. " This news was communicated to the initiators - the Way, says with a written communication sent by Cardinal James Stafford, president of the Pontifical Council for the Laity - March 1, 2003 (AIC-Prot No. 219/03 110). That the communication came from the Pontifical Council, said today his father Mario Pezzi, was completely normal, since the palace San Calisto mediarono from the beginning the relationship between the Way and all the other congregations (four) who had relations with ' route Training started by Kiko and Carmen.

So why, if everything was approved in 2003, after five years we have not seen or heard nothing official and definitive? "Because once spent quell'iter - Kiko said - we were told that the publication was thought to wait for the studies undertaken by the Congregation for Divine Worship on the Liturgy and the Congregation of the Clergy to the catechetical ministry in order to make a unique publication. And we're still waiting .... " But, and this is news, "we know that the Pope wants now that the catechesis becomes public, independently from the studies of other departments: a desire to del Santo Padre, – dice Kiko – che ci è stato confermato dal segretario sostituto di Stato, mons. Filoni”. “Non sappiamo con quali tempi, dunque, ma presto la pubblicazione degli Orientamenti alle equipes di catechisti sancirà l’ultima fase del percorso di approvazione dei contenuti teologici del Cammino”.

Neocatechumenal, the historic delivery

Cerimonia di consegna ufficiale al Pontificio Consiglio per i Laici del nuovo testo degli Statuti: due ore per un traguardo atteso quarant’anni. Le parole di Kiko e Carmen, le raccomandazioni del cardinal Rylko.

ROMA – Nel cuore di Trastevere, a due passi dalla basilica di Santa Maria, si consuma un momento storico output for the life of the Church since Vatican II: there is official recognition, expressed in the form of final approval of the Statutes, sort of a reality immediately after the Council, born in Spain in 1964 and arrived in Rome in 1968. Forty years later, his initiator pick up the legal text that defines the nature and role of the Neocatechumenal: to offer him is the president of the Pontifical Council for the Laity, the Vatican department for years and years involved in coordinating the work of recognition. An onerous and difficult task, complicated by the particular nature of the Neocatechumenal: not a movement, not a body of persons which to join, but a route, a method, an established route, punctuated by moments and periods, during which rediscover the foundations of their baptism, and therefore of their Catholic faith. Forty years after arriving in Rome, Kiko Arguello, a painter by profession, singing for pleasure, has long been the leader of a reality of the most dynamic and lives of the Catholic Church receives with Carmen Hernandez and Father Mario Pezzi (the other two components of the international team responsible for the Way), the definitive text of the Statutes of the hands of Cardinal Stanislaw Rylko, one of the strongest supporters of the Way.

The Great Hall of the Pontifical Council on the first floor of Palazzo San Calisto: untangling you get there per le stradine di Trastevere e continui a districarti anche dentro, fra i due lunghi tavoli con comode poltrone posti da un lato e dall’altro dell’Aula. Cinquanta persone affollano la sala: uomini e donne di mezza età, tutti protagonisti dei primi passi del Cammino neocatecumenale, a Roma o in Spagna. Mariti e mogli, ma anche sacerdoti, tutti con il vestito delle grandi occasioni e in fondo, oltre che emozionati, anche orgogliosi di poter essere presenti all’evento. Kiko Arguello si presenta chitarra in mano con la sua tradizionale giacca nera, assai più formale di Carmen che sfoggia una maglietta nera con una grande scritta centrale: “Sydney, Australia”. La Giornata mondiale della Gioventù, in fondo, è station: the Way not only prepares young people's participation in many of his community at the international event with the pope, but also the subsequent meeting between the team and the three international Neocatechumenals provided as usual - now - the Monday following the Closing the big event. Carmen emphasizes the theme with the attire, ed'altronde the Pontifical Council for the Laity - which is basically the WYD organizers - knows how to play at home.

Kiko, Carmen and Father Mario sit side: the central table sit members of the Pontifical Council for the Laity, the secretary Msgr. Clemens and the chairman card. Rylko. And 'he - come da etichetta – l’ultimo ad arrivare, e si inizia con Kiko alla chitarra e un canto (uno dei suoi) alla Madonna. Cantano tutti, i neocatecumeni: gli altri… ascoltano. La lettura di un passo di Vangelo precede la lettura ufficiale del Decreto con il quale il Pontificio Consiglio per i Laici “decreta l’approvazione definitiva dello Statuto del Cammino Neocatecumenale … nella fiducia che queste norme statutarie costituiscano linee guida ferme e sicure per la vita del Cammino e che esse siano di aiuto ai Pastori nel loro paterno e vigile accompagnamento delle comunità neocatecumenali nelle Chiese particolari”. La decisione, è specificato in premessa, è data “tenuto conto del prezioso contributo, attested by several bishops, that the Way continues to be the work of the new evangelization, through a practice now accepted and valued in its forty years of life in many particular Churches. " The decree is dated 11 May 2008, Solemnity of Pentecost is a clear indication that you want to consider the Way as one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit inspires for. The two signatures are those of the secretary and president of the Vatican department. Flash and cameras, along with smiles, for the moment the official handover between Rylko and Arguello.

A must listen to the protagonists. The first intervention is Kiko, who thanked everyone, starting from naturally God (the Father, the Son, the Spirit) and the Virgin that "there has always maintained, supported and consoled." Back down memory upon arrival in Italy, the visit to Our Lady of Pompeii, the first time in Rome, "as the poor who could not even speak Italian." The story is of the first steps in the "Borghetto Latin" with tin roofs from sheds and an encounter with a youth group of the Canadian Martyrs Parish, which would eventually become the first parish to live the Way. The first priests, the first bishops, the first meeting with Pope Paul VI: "With his blue eyes called me and said," Kiko, be humble and faithful to the Church I will be faithful and the Church. " Maybe I was not humble, but faithful to you, and now that word is fulfilled, "said Kiko. There is a thanksgiving for Pope John Paul II, who went by helicopter to the Centre of Porto San Giorgio neocatecumenale for dispatching of families, and as pontiff recognized the Way "itinerary of Catholic formation valid for our times", a formula preserved until today. Then there is the chapter on Joseph Ratzinger, the story of their knowledge in Regensburg, dinner in a restaurant, a visit to the Bishop of Monaco with Ratzinger who served as interpreter between the two. And then, once the Pope Wojtyla was elected the German cardinal prefect of the Congregation per la Dottrina della Fede, la richiesta ufficiale dei testi delle catechesi e il lungo lavoro di revisione che ne seguì. Fino all’approvazione definitiva degli Statuti. “Non siamo degni di tutto questo”, dice Kiko.

Si siede Kiko, e si alza Carmen: giusto che lo faccia anche lei, e lo fa per parecchio tempo. Inizia in italiano, condisce presto con qualche parola di spagnolo fino a cedere totalmente e ad esprimersi solo nella sua lingua natale: è contenta per Santa Romana Chiesa, dice, fa notare la coincidenza con il santo del giorno, Sant’Antonio da Padova (o di Lisbona, come sottolineano i non italiani), patrono delle cause impossibili, e si lancia nel sottolineare aspetti delle letture del giorno, ad iniziare dalla prima lettura con protagonista il profeta Elia. Kiko le chiede più volte di tornare in tema (la consegna degli Statuti), ma Carmen – figurarsi – non sta certo ad ascoltarlo e quanto più lui cerca di riportarla sui binari giusti e opportuni per l’occasione, tanto più lei si convince di dover proseguire facendo il contrario di quanto richiesto da Kiko: “Degli Statuti non mi importa nulla”, dice ad un certo punto esasperata dai richiami di Kiko a parlare degli Statuti. Non c’è che dire: un giorno i biografi – e ci saranno certamente - potranno sbizzarrirsi nel delineare i contorni del rapporto umano fra i due iniziatori. “Lo Statuto è l’impalcatura, l’importante is the Church, "says Carmen immediately after, and at this phrase Rylko clings to resume the last word:" We are here for that: it is the cause of the Church that is important to us - said the Cardinal - and I think one of the most great fruits of the Way is to be able to help discover the cause of so many baptized and the importance of the Church. " There is a good song, even if outside the program: "Kiko, a song: rose", and even calls to command Rylko. No sooner said than done: guitar in hand, singing the most famous part of the Way. In fact, this time, virtually all the singing. "Let us say a few words with Father Mario!" Kiko asked. "No," responds decided Rylko: the time at its disposal if it is eaten, including interest, all Carmen, talking for twenty minutes. For the representatives of the Way there is no longer: it is now up to the Cardinal.

"I know what you've been waiting for this moment - he says - and now came this authoritative confirmation of the authenticity of the Way ': not a simple" legal compliance ", but the recognition of an innovation inspired by the Holy Spirit. The Way to Rylko always tried to be faithful to the teachings of the Council "and the authenticity of the charism has been guaranteed by the" willingness to submit to the recognition the Church authorities, availability of which "must be acknowledged to the Way." At the time of the "revision" of the Statute, Rylko said that "the Church there has been a faithful" and that "you also ought to remain so." Warns that "fidelity is not achieved once and for all" but "requires commitment and constant vigilance." Returning to the speech by his predecessor at the head of the Pontifical Council for the Laity, Cardinal James Stafford, said at the time of the go-ahead to experimentum Statutes in 2002, Rylko highlights some points "must not be neglected for a correct implementation" of the document approved , starting from the 'essential relationship with the diocesan bishop, the first catechist of the flock entrusted to him ":" E 'need not operate anything without the bishop "and have in them a respectful attitude and obedient to their instructions." On the other hand, the statutes are also a tool in the hands of pastors to learn more about the Walk and to be able to meet it with "great love" in the wake of what the pope says that the movements and new ecclesial " no problem, but a gift from God. " Must be taken into account - again emphasizes Rylko - the characteristics of the local where the Way is engaged, and must be rispettato il ruolo dei parroci, i rapporti con i quali “esigono impegno continuo per una matura comunione”. “L’adeguato atteggiamento per l’innesto del Cammino neocatecumenale in una Chiesa particolare è quello dello spirito di servizio”, riassume prima di ricordare la necessità di valorizzare il ruolo del presbitero e di curare “la formazione umana dei catechisti”, la cui “delicata responsabilità richiede studio attento e costante, oltre che mitezza e dedizione”. Un passaggio sulla liturgia e sull’integrazione delle norme nel testo approvato, la rassicurazione della vicinanza del Pontificio Consiglio e la chiusura: “La consegna degli Statuti è una pietra miliare in the history of the Way: The Church expects from you the fruit ripe. "

How To Distort Guitar

Neocatechumenal, here is the new Statutes

integrated in the final drafting of the rules on the Liturgy: Communion standing, but in its place, for neocatechumens. The celebration, open to all, included in the normal liturgical parish. Kiko: "Soon the publication of catechesis"

ROME - Final Approval of the Statutes and official recognition of the Neocatechumenal as a "method of Catholic formation," with the normal liturgical celebrations included the parishes and integration in the text of the Statutes of the rules on liturgy, from the Communion, which henceforth will be received by the faithful of the various communities no longer sitting, but standing, though in place and no procession to the altar. It 's a historic day that the June 13, 2008 for the Neocatechumenal: the Holy See through the Pontifical Council for the Laity, delivery to the initiators Kiko Arguello and Carmen Hernandez, the final version of the Statutes and after five years of trials and eleven months and means of further analysis, that gives formal recognition that the Way was waiting for forty years. A fundamental step that will be supported in the near future - said Kiko - the publication of the two initiators of the integral catechesis, quelle contenute nel volume sugli “Orientamenti alle equipes di catechisti” e che “hanno ottenuto già da tempo il nulla osta della Congregazione per la Dottrina della fede”.

IL RICONOSCIMENTO – Non un movimento ecclesiale né un’associazione di persone: la Santa Sede riconosce il Cammino neocatecumenale come un “itinerario di formazione cattolica”, cioè un programma di formazione alla vita cristiana impartito in comunità e condotto secondo ritmi e metodi specifici, tanto dal punto di vista catechetico che da quello liturgico. E’ tale itinerario che, nella nuova formulazione degli Statuti, riceve “personalità giuridica pubblica”. Il Cammino – prescrive Article 1 of the approved document - "is at the service of the bishop as a form of diocesan implementation of Christian initiation and continuing education in the faith" (Article 1 of the Statutes), so it is under the jurisdiction and direction of the holder diocesan parishes and is implemented with the assistance and guidance of the team responsible for the path (art. 2) and in coordination with the parish. Do nothing without the bishop, then, a close relationship with the pastors, priests and exploitation of careful selection and training of catechists .

THE LITURGY: WHAT CHANGES - not a separate thing, but una delle varie espressioni della pastorale liturgica delle parrocchie: le celebrazioni dell’Eucaristia delle comunità neocatecumenali – che rimangono fissate al sabato sera - “fanno parte della pastorale liturgica domenicale della parrocchia e sono aperte anche ad altri fedeli” (art. 13). E’ per questo, dice Kiko in conferenza stampa, che risulta superato quanto previsto dalla lettera della Congregazione per il Culto divino riguardo alla partecipazione dei membri delle comunità alla messa domenicale in parrocchia almeno una volta al mese: ora sono le stesse celebrazioni neocatecumenali a far parte della pastorale parrocchiale, e i neocatecumeni dunque non avranno più l’obbligo di “saltare” un sabato every thirty days. The celebrations take place Neocatechumenals accordance with the bishop and follow the liturgical books approved by the Roman Rite, except - requires new text of the Statutes - "concessions to express the Holy See." The reference is - at present - the warnings before the readings, the resonances of the faithful before the homily, the exchange of peace after the homily. Two lines lay down that kind of compromise then in terms of distribution of the Eucharist: the faithful will not seated but standing, as requested by the Congregation for Divine Worship, but it remained in place, and failing in procession to the 'altar as required by the liturgical books: "With regard - according to the third paragraph of art. 13 - the distribution of Holy Communion under both species, the neocatechumens receive it standing, remaining in their places. "

the future - and 'final approval for the Neocatechumenal, which remains a tool available to the diocesan bishop and will therefore continue to be present only in the dioceses and parishes that want to take him or explicitly require it. Also from a formal point of view now is highlighted participation of the Way, and in particular of the Eucharistic celebrations on Saturday, parish life: the journey is, of course, for each individual parish priests and bishops, not an obligation but a possibility, a tool, a training course to be used (or not) for the evangelization of Christian initiation: those who chose it now the formal assurance by the Holy See's adherence to the teachings of the Church of the Way.

About doctrinal adherence, in addition to the Statutes of the Way will also implement the Catechesis of Kiko and Carmen, those contained in the book - Guidelines for teams of catechists "- explicitly mentioned in the document approved by the Pontifical Council for the Laity. A text, according to the initiator of the Way, will be published within a reasonable time: cleared by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith came in 2003 (after an intense work-ups) and now, after coming to the end the path to final approval of the statutes - will be made available to all. It remains essential in the practical realization of the Way, the role of catechist: the statutes require that they are qualified people, "chosen from among those who give guarantees of life of faith and morals" and "properly trained".

What Happens When You To Slip Into Coma

Neocatechumenal, it's official: final approval to the Statutes

A statement issued by the Pontifical Council for the Laity announced the final go-ahead: the decree was dated 11 May and will be delivered tomorrow to the initiators of the Way

ROME - Final Approval. Nearly a year after the expiry of five years of experimentation, now is the final go-ahead for the Statute of the Neocatechumenal: its decree of the Pontifical Council for the Laity - the document which bears the date 11 May last, the solemnity of Pentecost - will be delivered tomorrow, June 13, members of the international responsible team Neocatechumenal. Upon delivery, which will be held at the Great Hall of the Vatican department, will attend the one hand, Cardinal Stanislaw Rylko, president of the Pontifical Council for the Laity, and the other founders Kiko Arguello and Carmen Hernandez, together with Father Mario Pezzi . There will be a first group of itinerant catechists of the Way. After delivery, once made known the final text of the Statute, it will be possible to evaluate the content and the differences from previous versions. In the afternoon, in that regard, there will be a press conference Kiko, Carmen and Father Mario Pezzi.

The news is official approval of a statement issued by the Pontifical Council for the Laity. "The final approval of the Statute of the Neocatechumenal - it said - is, of course, an important milestone in the life of this ecclesial reality, built in Spain in 1964, this act has required numerous consultations at various levels." "During the period of experimentally for approval of the Statute of the Way - continues the statement - the Pontifical Council for the Laity has been able to see the many fruits that the Neocatechumenal since his birth, brings to the Church in view of the new evangelization, through a catechetical-liturgical practices accepted and valued - now in its forty years - in many Particular Churches. Therefore, after careful review of the bylaws and the introduction of some changes that are deemed necessary, the Pontifical Council for the Laity has come to grant final approval of the Statute. "

The note of the Vatican department continues recalling the most recent stages of the path that led to the approval: "In an audience granted to the members of the Neocatechumenal January 12, 2006, the Holy Father Benedict XVI said:" Your action will lie at the heart of the Apostolic Church, in total harmony with her directives and in communion with the particular Churches in which you are going to operate, making the most la ricchezza dei carismi che il Signore ha suscitato attraverso gli iniziatori del Cammino». Più recentemente, il 17 maggio scorso - continua il comunicato vaticano – durante l’udienza in occasione di un seminario di studio per vescovi, organizzato dal Pontificio Consiglio per i Laici, il Papa affermava che «i movimenti ecclesiali e le nuove comunità sono una delle novità più importanti suscitate dallo Spirito Santo nella Chiesa per l’attuazione del Concilio Vaticano II», e volle ricordare come i servi di Dio Paolo VI e Giovanni Paolo II «seppero accogliere e discernere, incoraggiare e promuovere l’imprevista irruzione delle nuove realtà laicali che, in forme varie e sorprendenti, ridonavano vitalità, faith and hope to the whole Church. " Referring to the words addressed to a group of German bishops in ad Limina visit, urging them: "I ask you to meet the movements with great love" (November 18, 2006), Benedict XVI wanted to add, among other considerations, "we Pastors are asked to accompany a close, with fatherly concern, so friendly and knowledgeable, the movements and new communities so that they can generously put at the service of the common, in an orderly and productive, the many gifts they bring and we have come to know and appreciate: the missionary impulse, the effective routes of Christian formation, the testimony of loyalty and obedience alla Chiesa, la sensibilità ai bisogni dei poveri, la ricchezza di vocazioni».

“In questa prospettiva - è la chiusura del comunicato emesso dal Pontificio Consiglio per i Laici - è da auspicare che lo Statuto del Cammino Neocatecumenale, approvato adesso in forma definitiva, possa essere un valido strumento al servizio di questa realtà ecclesiale, affinché essa continui a contribuire al bene di tutta la Chiesa”.
