Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of historical and cultural memory for a Church. It suggests that when a Church forgets or neglects its rich past - its traditions, teachings, and values - it becomes disconnected and vulnerable. The analogy of senility conveys a sense of decay and loss of vitality. By remembering its roots and history, a Church maintains its identity and strength, preserving the wisdom and experiences of those who came before and remaining relevant in its mission.
