The act or practice of jointly celebrating or performing a religious rite, especially the Eucharist, with others.
From Latin 'concelebratio', derived from 'concelebrare'. The suffix '-tion' converts the verb into an abstract noun describing the act or practice.
Concelebration transformed Catholic worship after Vatican II in ways most people don't notice. What looks like priests standing together at the altar represents a shift from 'the priest says Mass' to 'we celebrate together'—a linguistic marker of theological democracy.
