Matthew- man

Mark- lion

Luke- calf

John- eagle

Subject- fall of Rome. Why were the barbarians not more barbaric? Because of "Christ and his era"

"For it is throught the liturgy, especially the divine Eucharistic Sacrifice, that the work of our redemption is exercised"

-"The liturgy is thus the outstanding means by which the faithful can express in their lives and manifest to others, the mystery of Christ and the real nature of the true Church."
