This will include initial training as well as ongoing education and formation. Four semesters of theological study in the area of liturgy. This course takes a detailed look into the liturgical rite of each sacrament, with particular emphasis given to the Eucharist. Special attention is paid to the theology underlying each rite. Students are asked to reflect on the theology of lay liturgical ministry and are guided in developing a Catholic spirituality based in the liturgy.
Topics covered include the liturgical year and the liturgy of the hours.
These courses are designed specifically for students who exercise a liturgical ministry at the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center, and in particular for those who are interested in completing the Liturgical Ministry Certification Program. However, they are open to all. Courses are taught at the St. Lawrence Center by members of the staff. Please contact the center for more information. The office of Liturgical Studies at the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center will offer summer programs of ongoing education and formation for liturgical ministers who serve the parish communities of Kansas and surrounding states.
