THE� CATECHISM� OF� THE� CATHOLIC� CHURCH� � � IN� BRIEF:CHAPTER� ONE� THE� PASCHAL� MYSTERY� IN� THE� AGE� OF� THE� CHURCH� Article� 1� THE� LITURGY� -� WORK� OF� THE� HOLY� TRINITY

1110� In� the� liturgy� of� the� Church,� God� the� Father� is� blessed� and� adored� as� the� source� of� all� the� blessings�

As� believers� in� the� life,� death� and� resurrection� of� Jesus� Christ,� our� faith� is� not� to� be� passive,� or� personal.� To� say� I� believe� in� God� and�

in� His� Son� Jesus� Christ� requires� of� us� to� also� live� what� we� believe.� We� are� to� love� God� and� one� another.� We� are� also� to� remove� any� and� all� obstacles� that� would� interfere� or� prevent� us� from� growing� in� that� faith�

we� profess.� Our� faith� only� becomes� active� when� we� share� our� faith� with� others,� a� faith� that� is� given� freely� by� our� Heavenly� Father� to� all� who� ask.� When� we� allow� ourselves� to� be� changed� by� the� gospel� message� and� share� that� message� with� others� we� give� glory� to� God,� and� we� “bear� much� fruit� and� become� (His)� disciples.”

of� creation� and� salvation� with� which� he� has� blessed� us� in� his� Son,� in� order� to� give� us� the� Spirit� of� fi� lial� adoption.

1111� Christ’s� work� in� the� liturgy� is� sacramental:� because� his� mystery� of� salvation� is� made� present� there� by� the� power� of� his� Holy� Spirit;� because� his� Body,� which� is� the� Church,� is� like� a� sacrament� (sign� and� instrument)� in� which� the� Holy� Spirit� dispenses� the� mystery� of� salvation;� and� because� through� her� liturgical� actions� the� pilgrim� Church� already� participates,� as� by� a� foretaste,� in� the� heavenly� liturgy.

1112� The� mission� of� the� Holy� Spirit� in� the� liturgy� of� the� Church� is� to� prepare� the� assembly� to� encounter� Christ;� to� recall� and� manifest� Christ� to� the� faith� of� the� assembly;� to� make� the� saving� work� of� Christ� present� and� active� by� his� transforming� power;� and� to� make� the� gift� of� communion� bear� fruit� in� the� Church.
