True Liturgy is a Reflection of Heaven

sarah-youtubeweb_810_500_55_s_c1Cardinal Robert Sarah, Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, recently spoke of the importance of the liturgy and liturgical reform. His comments were read at 18th Cologne International Liturgical conference.

“the true worshippers of God are not those who reform the liturgy according to their own ideas and creativity, to make it something pleasing to the world, but rather those who reform the world in depth with the Gospel so as to allow it access to a liturgy that is the reflection of the liturgy that is celebrated from all eternity in the heavenly Jerusalem.” –Cardinal Robert Sarah
