Pope Francis sends a message to participants attending the
17th International Liturgical Conference which is taking place at the Monastery
of Bose.
The 17th International Liturgical Conference "ALTAR -
Recent acquisitions, new problems", opens Thursday at the Monastery of
Bose in Northern Italy.
The Conference is being organized by the Monastery along with
the National Office for Ecclesiastical Cultural Heritage of the Italian
Episcopal Conference, in collaboration with the National Council of Architects.
The altar was the theme of the International Liturgical
Conference in Bose in 2003 and the symposium is returning to this subject to
present the latest results of historical studies in the past fifteen years and
to discuss new questions that have arisen.
Particular attention will be given to New Testament
foundations of the Christian altar and to its image today.
Marking the opening of the event Pope Francis sent a message
Thursday signed by Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin.
In it, the Pope sends his greetings to the participants and
expresses the hope that reflections during this symposium will lead to a more
mature understanding of “the liturgy as the source and culmination of an
ecclesial and personal life full of fraternity.”
