Bowing and Genuflection

_|àâÜzç VÉÜÇxÜ

I have to admit that I sometimes laugh to myself when I see people enter into church who genuflect to their pew or bow to the wall. Do we know what we are doing and why? The church gives us instruction that before and after Mass, all who enter into the church should genuflect towards the tabernacle, showing reverence and honor for the real presence of Christ. During Mass, when approaching the sanctuary, all should bow to the altar of sacrifice. Here, Jesus becomes known to us in the blessing of the bread and wine, his true body and blood. We should never bow or genuflect to a statue or a cross. We may pray near them, but they don’t require our recognition of them with a bow or genuflection.

Aenon Liturgical Ministers Aenon Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion. There is a mee ng for ALL CURRENT EMHC’s on September 16th from 10 am to Noon in the Church. Lunch will be served. THIS IS YOUR RECOMMISSIONING MEETING since most all commissions expire in 2018. Please plan to a,end!

Inclinación y Genuflexión

Ricón de la Liturgia

Tengo que admitir que a veces me causa risa cuando veo a personas entrar en la iglesia que hacen una genuflexión en su banco o se inclinan hacia la pared .. ¿Sabemos lo que estamos haciendo y por qué? La iglesia nos da la instrucción de que antes y después de la misa, todos los que entran en la iglesia deben hacer genuflexión hacia el tabernáculo, mostrando reverencia y honor por la presencia real de Cristo. Durante la Misa, al acercarse al santuario, todos deben inclinarse ante el altar del sacrificio. Aquí, Jesús se nos conoce en la bendición del pan y el vino, su verdadero cuerpo y sangre. Nunca deberíamos inclinarnos o hacernos genuflexión ante una estatua o una cruz. Podemos orar cerca de ellos, pero no requieren nuestro reconocimiento de ellos con una inclinación o genuflexión
