This program provides an overview of the Church's liturgical year and an explanation of Sunday's importance within it. The program is presented in four segments:
In the
story segment, a couple celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary reflect on events and themes, and the rhythms and cycle of their life together. Their marriage provides a real-life parallel to the way that the Church year relates to our daily lives.
In the
witness segment, Catholics talk about the relevance of the liturgical year and Sundays in their faith lives.
In the
teaching segment, Franciscan Father Thomas Richstatter offers an overview of the liturgical year and an explanation of the important place Sunday holds within it. His presentation revolves around the central statement that "the Church year is the way we read the Bible."
The program concludes with a
music video reflection to the song, "As Water to the Thirsty," performed by David Haas and friends.
An excellent introduction for liturgical minister training, RCIA, and adult faith enrichment.
