Most of us are experiencing new insights into the liturgical prayer of the Church with the reform and introduction of the vernacular into the liturgy, andgain greatjoy from it. We ought to remind ourselves that this joy of being in communion with God through Christ can be ours all the time and must be so if we follow the teaching of Christ. St Ambrose, bishop of Milan in the fourth century when liturgical life was flourishing, preached the same theme to his newly baptised converts as the Second Vatican Council does to us today.
