What Is Liturgy?
The Roman Missal notes that liturgy is the “primary and indispensable source from which the faithful are to derive the true Christian Spirit … the entire celebration is planned in such a way that it leads to a conscious, active and full participation of the faithful both in body and mind” (No. 17).

Since the Liturgy of the Holy Eucharist is the “source and summit of the Christian Life” (CCC 1324), the Liturgy Committee is a pastoral ministry of the parish. It operates in an advisory capacity to the pastor and is actively and directly connected and concerned with all of the aspects of the liturgical and sacramental life of the community of St. Thomas of Canterbury.
