“Therefore, brothers, since through the blood of Jesus we have confidence of entrance into the sanctuary by the new and living way he opened for us through the veil, that is, his flesh, and since we have “a great priest over the house of God,” let us approach with a sincere heart and in absolute trust, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed in pure water. Let us hold unwaveringly to our confession that gives us hope, for he who made the promise is trustworthy. We must consider how to rouse one another to love and good works. We should not stay away from our assembly, as is the custom of some, but encourage one another, and this all the more as you see the day drawing near.”
(Hebrews 10:19-25)

WORSHIP is the beginning and end of all things for a Catholic. It is the source and summit of Catholic life, including that of a parish. We receive from God, we make offering to God, and so on, with our joint participation with Christ in the ultimate offering to God the Father in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. For many, this is all that there is to Catholic life—go to Mass —but it is merely the beginning. By our WORSHIP, we BELONG to the Body of Christ, are called to GROW, the GIVE back, and GO forth in authentic discipleship. Of course, all of this leads us back to WORSHIP.
