To celebrate Mass facing east

The Vatican’s liturgy chief has called on priests to celebrate Mass facing east.

...

Cardinal Sarah, prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, rejected the argument that priests celebrating Mass facing east are turning their backs on the faithful “or against them”.

Rather, he said, all are “turned in the same direction: towards the Lord who comes”.
