THE SOURCE & SUMMIT OF OUR FAITH CENTERS ON THE LITURGY WHICH INCLUDES THE EUCHARIST & THE OTHER 6 SIX SACRAMENTS. CCC 1324

 Second Vatican Council – pointed out that the life of the Church centers on the Liturgy, but also

ther actions of the Church e.g., Liturgy of the Hours, rite of Christian burial and the dedication of

a church.

 But, the Council also recognized that it is ‘not possible for us to fill up all of our day with

participation in the liturgy’, and since we are taught by Saint Paul to ‘pray without ceasing’ (1 Thes 5:17), devotional practices play a crucial role to help foster ceaseless prayer.
