Biblical and Liturgical Formation in Teams of the Liturgical Altar Service

Summary/Abstract: The liturgical and biblical education was a postulate set by the liturgical movement before the Second Vatican Council. In this context, one cannot speak of liturgical renewal without upbringing the liturgical clergy and the faithful, which is why this postulate was realized in the Church in Poland, in the curriculum of the altar boys and teachers, developed by the National Ministry of the Liturgical Service. Even, if it was not taken up and carried out in a proper shape in each diocese, it is possible to talk about one general biblical and liturgical paradigm of working with altar servers and lectors. It is worth emphasizing that “the effectiveness and fruitfulness of all pastoral and educational activities are not determined by programs, papers, technical aids and an external organizational apparatus. All these are necessary and useful, but ultimately, the person decides and the degree of their engagement, commitment and devotion to the given matter”.
