  16. Foundation • Sunday Eucharist is the central action of parish life. • Our Sacramental principle: Creation, humanity, and human deeds hold and reveal the presence of God in the world. • “Sacramental life and celebration flourish when all parish ministers, especially those responsible for catechesis and liturgy, work together and share the vision.” (A Common Sense for Parish Life, LTP)
