- The gathered assembly at each St. Theresa liturgy is the principal “choir.”
- God has bestowed upon his people the gift of song. God dwells
within each human person, in the place where music takes its
source. Indeed, God, the giver of song, is present whenever his
people sing his praises.”
- Within the gathered assembly, the role of the congregation is especially
important. ‘The full and active participation by all the people is the aim to
be considered before all else, for it is the primary and indispensable
source from which the faithful are to derive the true Christian spirit.’”
- “Singing is one of the primary ways that the assembly of the
faithful participates actively in the Liturgy.”
