Summary/Abstract: Missionary updates within the Holy Liturgy. This study intends to be a review of the main elements which compose a genuine symphony between the Church’s mission and the celebration of the Holy Liturgy. The Holy Liturgy, far from its message becoming out-ofdate or its content being reduced in „aggiornate” (up to date) versions, remains the same mystical participation in the Last Supper, in the sacrifice and ressurection of our Lord. Its message is even more actual in the spiritual void of the postmodernism. Consequently it is due for the Church’s mission to develop with pithiness a side of the liturgical ministration, able to fill this void and it ought to do it.
