The Essentials of Catholic Liturgy
Liturgy Training Publications, in partnership with the National Association of Pastoral Musicians (NPM), introduces a new series of training courses: The Essentials of Catholic Liturgy (ECL). Offered in three tracks to assist participants in need of various levels of instruction, these training courses offer instruction and formation in the fundamentals of Catholic liturgy and the essential liturgical documents.
Each track will be a collaborative form of learning that combines expert presentations on the history and theology of liturgy with a chance to engage in mystagogical reflections with others in the course.
Track One, The Basics of Liturgy, will be offered online beginning in January 2019. Track Two, Sacramental Rites and Other Parish Liturgies, will be offered in person at the NPM Annual Convention, July 16-19, 2019 (pre-convention day July 15).
Read more about the entire program, its elements, structure, and availability at the LTP website and at https://teocl.org/.
