Silence is promoted in official documents on celebrating Mass. After we respond “Thanks be to God”, “a few moments of silence may be observed so that all may meditate on what they have heard.” General Introduction from Congregation of Divine Worship No. 128,130. We shall begin these periods of silence (30 seconds) in October. The Parish Liturgy Team planned this at it’s last meeting.
In other words wait 30 seconds before the Psalm, before the Alleluia verse, and before the first collection.
