Cebu City, The Philippines, 19 April 2024 -- On Wednesday, April 17, 2024, Rev. Fr. Keith Amodia, SDB, led a Liturgical Formation at the Archdiocesan Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes where various youth groups, including Knights of the Altar, Lilies of the Altar, Lourdes Parish Youth Rondalla, Sta. Cecilia Youth Choir, Biblos Sodality, and Juventus Sodality gathered to learn about the intricacies of the Mass and its four major parts.
The youth learned about the Holy Mass's significance, history, and value since they serve and animate the youth mass of the parish every Sunday at 6:00 pm. In understanding the celebration better, young people can better appreciate and love the liturgy's beauty.
The formation imparted to them the Mass's importance and elegance and emphasized reverence and prayer. This serves as an awareness of their youthful role within the Mass, and they dedicate themselves to active participation in the faith community.
