What is the Catholic Mass?

Section 54 further instructs that 'the faithful may also be able to say or to sing together in Latin those parts of the Ordinary of the Mass which pertain to them.'

Who leads the Catholic Church?

The Pope, successor of St. Peter, Vicar of Christ on Earth, with authority given by Jesus Christ Himself.

What are the Seven Sacraments?

Faith in Jesus Christ, adherence to His Church's teachings, reception of the Sacraments, and a life of grace.
