„Pan z wami”, ale wzrok już w mszale. Bp Pierskała o tym, co zdradza twarz celebransa
In brief
Bishop Rudolf Pierskała noted that a priest's facial expressions and actions can reveal a lack of true connection during Mass. He observed that some celebrants say the words "The Lord be with you" while looking for Mass intention cards, or invite the faithful to pray while turning pages in the missal to find the correct prayer.
According to Pierskała, while the words and gestures may appear correct, these distractions prevent a genuine encounter during the liturgy.
