The Ordinariate and rediscovery of the Mystery in Europe

Continuing the theme of the place of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham in the new evangelisation in Europe, more words from Blessed John Paul II's Ecclesia in Europa:

The task that awaits the Church in Europe is both demanding and exciting.  It consists in rediscovering the sense of "mystery"; in renewing liturgical celebrations so that they can be more eloquent signs of the presence of Christ the Lord; in ensuring greater silence in prayer and in contemplation; in returning to Sacraments, especially the Eucharist and Penance, as wellsprings of freedom and new hope (69).
