Specific workshop indoc trination has been under the direction of Fathers Bourke, Dillman, Foust, and Hoffman. Following is a translation of the text of Pope Paul Vi's motu proprio Sacram Liturgiam, on implementing the ecumenical council’s liturgy constitution. The many documents on lit urgical questions that have been published and are well known to all demonstrate how it was the ceaseless concern of our pre decessors in the supreme pon tificate, of ourselves, and of the holy shepherds to preserve dili gently, to cultivate and to renew the sacred liturgy according to need. Another proof of this soli citude is given by the liturgical constitution which the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council has approved by general consent and which we in the solemn public session of Dec. 4, 1963, order ed to be promulgated. This lively interest stems from the fact that "in the earth ly liturgy we take part in a fore taste of that heavenly liturgy which is celebrated in the holy city of Jerusalem toward which we journey as pilgrims, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God, a minister of the holies and of the true tabernacle. We sing a hymn to the Lord's glory with all the warriors of the heavenly army. Venerating the memory of the saints, we hope for some part and fellowship with them. We eagerly await the Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ, until He, our life, shall appear and we too will appear with Him in glory” (Article 8, liturgy constitution). FOR THIS reason the souls of the faithful worship God, the principle and model of all holi ness, in such a way as to be, in this earthly pilgrimage, “imi tators of the heavenly zion” (from hymn of Lauds of the Feast of the Dedication of a Church). For these reasons it is aopa- rent to all that it is our upper most concern that all Chris tians, and especially all priests, should consecrate themselves first of all to the study of the already-mentioned constitution and from now on, resolve to im plement its individual prescrip tions in good faith as soon as they enter into force. And since it is necessary by the very na ture of things that liturgical laws should take place Imme- daitely, we earnestly exhort shepherds of dioceses that with the help of the sacred minis ters, “dispensers of God’s mysteries” (constitution, Ar ticle 19), they should hasten to act in order that the faithful entrusted to their care may un derstand, to the degree permit ted by age, by the conditions of their own life and by their mental formation, the strength and inner value of the liturgy and at the same time partici pate very devoutly, internally and externally, in the rites of the Church (constitution, Ar ticle 19). Meanwhile, it seems evident that many prescriptions of the constitution cannot be applied in a short period of time, es pecially since some rites must first be revised and new litur gical books prepared. In or der that this work may be car ried out with the necessary wisdom and prudence, we are establishing a special commis sion whose principal task will be to implement in the best possible way the prescriptions of the Constitution on Sacred Liturgy itself. HOWEVER since among the norms of the constitution there are some which can be made ef fective now, we desire that they enter immediately into force, so that the souls of the faithful may not be further deprived of the fruits of the grace which are hoped for from them. Therefore, with our apostolic authority and on our own initia tive, we order and decree that from the coming first Sunday of Lent, that is from Feb. 16, 1964, the end of the interim period established by law, the following norms enter into force; I. We desire that the norms before the Kntilers of Valieiin contained in Articles 15, 16 and 17 concerning the teaching of the liturgy in seminaries, in schools of religious communi ties and in theological faculties immediately should be worked into the programs in such a way that beginning in the next school year students may devote them selves to such study in an or derly and diligent way. II. We also decree that, ac cording to the norms of Arti cles 45 and 45, there be es tablished as soon as possible in the various dioceses a commis sion whose task is, under direc tion of the: bishop, to foster knowledge of the liturgy and ad vance the liturgical apostolate. It will also be opportune that in certain cases, several dio ceses should have a single com mission. Furthermore, in all dioceses let two other commissions be established: one for sacred music and the other for sac red art. These three diocesan com missions may also be merged into one if necessary. III. From the date establish ed above, we desire that the norms of Article 52 should en ter into force, prescribing the homily during holy Mass on Sun- CONTINUED ON PAGE 4
