GENERAL SESSIONS

Wednesday, January 15, 2020, 7:00 PM — General Session I

Meet Yourself: Coming and Going Reverend Paul Turner

The Study Week opens with the closing. The dismissal of the mass does more than close the celebration. It begins the mission. This

talk will explain the importance of the dismissal and explore deeper meanings of how your life glorifies the Lord.

Paul Turner is pastor of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Kansas City, Missouri and director of the Office

of Divine Worship for the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph. He holds a doctorate in sacred theology from Sant’

Anselmo in Rome. His publications include At the Supper of the Lamb (Chicago: Liturgy Training Publications,

2011); Glory in the Cross (Collegeville: Liturgical Press, 2011); and Celebrating Initiation: A Guide for Priests (Chicago:

World Library Publications, 2008). He is a former President of the North American Academy of Liturgy, a member of So-

cietas Liturgica and the Catholic Academy of Liturgy. He is a recipient of the Jubilate Deo Award (National Association of

Pastoral Musicians) and the Frederick McManus Award (Federation of Diocesan Liturgical Commissions). He serves as

a facilitator for the International Commission on English in the Liturgy.

Thursday, January 16, 2020, 8:30 AM — General Session II

Liturgy in a Missionary Key Mr. Robert Feduccia

St. Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict both have said that the documents of the Second Vatican Council remain our compass as

we advance well into the 21st. Often called a “missionary council”, Vatican II called the Church to return to its evangelistic origins

and set the Church on a missionary footing. This evangelistic mandate is echoed in the call of Pope Francis to be missionary

disciples. This message has implications on how we serve, catechize, and worship. Our keynote address today will provide a path

forward for liturgical worship at this time in the Church.

Robert Feduccia, Jr. was the founding director of the Youth Liturgical Leadership Program at Saint Meinrad School of

Theology and was also the general manager for Spirit & Song, the contemporary music division of OCP (Oregon Catho-

lic Press). Robert combines his unique set of experiences as a parish youth minister, retreat leader, and keynote present-

er with his graduate degree in theology, and is able to express spiritual depth in way that is relevant to the real concerns

people face today.

Thursday, January 16, 2020, 1:15 PM — General Session III

Christ’s Message is Made Known by Word and Deed Rita Thiron, MA

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults repeatedly makes clear that the initiation of adults is the responsibility of all the bap-

tized. The rite envisions that the entire community is actively involved throughout the process of initiation. “The faithful should

remember that for the Church and its members the supreme purpose of the apostolate is that Christ’s message is made known to the

world by word and deed and that his grace is communicated. They should show themselves ready to give the candidates evidence of

the spirit of the Christian community and to welcome them into their homes, into personal conversation, and into community

gatherings” (RCIA 9.1). Why did the bishops of the Second Vatican Council see the need to restore the catechumenal process? Why

did they boldly remind each of us that we have the duty to invite, influence, and inform those who seek to know Jesus and his

Church? What, then, does a parish process look like? How might we reexamine what we say and do during the period of the pre-

catechumenate? Whose message are we sharing? How can we best “glorify the Lord by our lives”?

Mrs. Rita Thiron serves as the Executive Director of the Federation of Diocesan Liturgical Commissions (FDLC). She

has been a member of the FDLC since 1993 and has served on the Board of Directors and multiple committees. She

formerly served as the Director of the Office of Worship in the Diocese of Lansing and as the Director of Adult Educa-

tion and the Catechumenate at Holy Family Parish. She holds an MA in Theology from the University of Notre Dame

and a BA in History from Xavier University. She is the author of seven books and countless articles and is a frequent

presenter in the dioceses of the USA.

Worship and the Catholic Imagination: The Church as Sacred Space Deacon Owen Cummings

The fire that wrecked Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris last this year was clearly a cultural as well as a religious tragedy. People iden-

tified with the Cathedral historically, culturally and nationally. Prompted by this tragedy we might ask foundational questions such

as, “Why do we need buildings to worship in?” or “What does a worship space actually do?” This reflection will engage such ques-

tions not by getting into complex issues of liturgical architecture but pastorally.

Owen Cummings, a native of Glasgow (Scotland), was educated in Semitic Languages and Theology at University Col-

lege Dublin, the Milltown Institute of Philosophy and Theology Dublin, the University of Glasgow, and Trinity College

Dublin. The author of twenty-one books and many articles in Theology, he holds the Regents’ Chair of Theology at

Mount Angel Seminary in Oregon. Ordained in 1989, he is incardinated in the Diocese of Salt Lake City. He and his

wife Cathy have five grown children, and seven grandchildren.

GENERAL SESSIONS

Friday, January 17, 2020, 1:30 PM — General Session V

Liturgical Ministry: Call, A Gift, A Responsibility Dolly Sokol, Ph.D.

We are lectors, deacons, servers, choristers, musicians, presiders…. We are Christians within the Roman Catholic tradition. What

do our baptismal identity and ministerial title have to do with life in today’s world? Could they be gifted to us “for the life of the

world”? Let’s reflect together!

Dr. Dolly Sokol is a pastoral liturgist, author, speaker, college instructor, and consultant with over 40 years liturgical

experience at the local, regional, and national levels. Dolly earned her PhD in Organizational Development from the

University of New Mexico. She holds Masters degrees in Theology (Word and Worship) from Catholic Theological

Union, in Management from National Louis University, and in Theatre from the University of Illinois. She has au-

thored two books and numerous articles. Dolly has worked for the Catholic Church as a liturgical guitarist, cantor,

parish music and liturgy director, co-pastor, Associate Director and Director of the Diocesan Office of Worship in

both Chicago and Santa Fe and adjunct college instructor in liturgy. Dolly was a member of the Board of Directors of

the Federation of Diocesan Liturgical Commissions (FDLC) and the Southwest Liturgical Conference (SWLC). She is

a member of the North American Academy of Liturgy (NAAL) and the Catholic Academy of Liturgy (CAL). She has

also been a member of the National Association of Pastoral Musicians (NPM) since its inception. Dolly retired from

active ministry in the Archdiocese of Santa Fe at the end of 2016 and moved to the Phoenix area.

Saturday, January 18, 2020, 8:30 AM — General Session VI

Sent to Accompany through Witness and Solidarity Dr. Hosffman Ospino

Breaking bread in the Eucharist prepares the Christian disciple to break bread with those she/he encounters in and beyond the

liturgical space, especially those most vulnerable. The term accompaniment derives from the Latin ad cum panem or sharing bread

with others. Let us reflect on the intimate relationship between breaking bread and Christian solidarity.

Hosffman Ospino, PhD is an Associate Professor of Theology and Religious Education at Boston College where he is

also Director of Graduate Programs in Hispanic Ministry. He has served as the principal investigator for several

national studies on the Hispanic Catholic experience. Presently he advances a national study on Latino Catholic

vocations. He has authored/edited 13 books and more than a hundred essays, academic and general. He serves on

the Board of Directors of the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA). Dr. Ospino serves as a consultant

for several national and international organizations.

A- 1 RCIA: National Statutes for the Catechumenate

Rita Thiron, MA

In November 1986, the United States Bishops passed

thirty-seven statutes related to the process of Christian

initiation. By early 1988, they were approved by the

Vatican. This session will examine these important, but

often-neglected mandates which serve as particular law for

the dioceses of the United States. They are designated to

inform and impact pastoral practice, sacramental policies,

and liturgical celebrations regarding catechumens,

candidates, uncatechized Catholics, and children of

catechetical age. Clergy, RCIA teams, and parish staffs

should be familiar with Statutes’ content and wisdom.

A-2 Liturgical Arts: Art for the Church

Carol Frenning

All of our worship spaces have some form of art in them.

We all believe that a worship space should be beautiful.

Where does this idea come from? Why do we have art in

our churches? Why do some things stay the same and

others change during the year? Can art help our prayer or

is it a distraction? Understanding the role of art in the

church can aid us in selecting the art whether it will be a

permanent or temporary art form.

A-3 Lectio Divina for Ministers of the Word:

Lectio in Daily Experience

Peggy Guerrero

Lectio Divina can lead us both into the word of God as well

as into the presence of God in our lives. The workshop

will begin with sharing an experience of Lectio Divina with

the group. The session will then explore a way of bringing

the practice of Lectio into conversation with

daily living as well as with scripture.

A-4 Ministers of Holy Communion:

Do’s and Don’ts

Reverend Paul Turner

This workshop will survey the rubrics concerning

extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion . You think

you know what a communion minister is supposed to do.

But do you?

A-5 During and After Mass: Glorify the Lord

Reverend Heliodoro Lucatero, Ph.D.

BILINGUAL

In the celebration of the Eucharist, as in all liturgical

celebrations, we gather together to celebrate the presence

of God, mediated by Jesus Christ. It is a presence that sanc-

tifies us and nourishes us by Word and Sacrament not only

to constitute us as God’s children, the communion of

saints, God’s holy nation, the mystical body of Christ, and

temples of the Holy Spirit, but also we receive the strength

to be missionary disciples, to go out into the world to give

witness of the good news of the Kingdom of God, and to

proclaim God’s love to all by Word and example.

En la celebración de la Eucaristía, como en todas las celebraciones

Litúrgicas, nos reunimos para celebrar la presencia de Dios, te-

niendo a nuestro Señor Jesucristo como mediador. Es una presen-

cia que nos santifica y nos alimenta por medio de la Palabra y del

Sacramento no solo para constituirnos como hijos e hijas de Dios,

la comunión de los santos, nación consagrada, el Cuerpo Místico

de Cristo y templos del Espíritu Santo, sino también recibimos la

fuerza para ser discípulos misioneros, para salir al mundo a pro-

clamar la buena nueva del reino de Dios, y llevar a todos al amor

de Dios de palabra y ejemplo.

A-6 The Bees are Back:

What’s the Buzz with the New Exultet

Martin Marklin

With the third translation of the Roman Missal, we find

that the bees have returned to the Exulted, the

long-awaited proclamation of the resurrection that opens

the Easter Vigil. After the discipline of Lent and the

intensity of Holy Week, the Church rejoices to hear the

good news. Learn about the meaning of the Exulted, the

virtues of the bees that extols, and the candle that it praises.

This lively presentation will brighten your appreciation of

Easter, deepen your respect for bees, and inspire you to go

forth and Spread the Paschal Light of Jesus Christ into the

World!

B-1 RCIA: The Baptismal Liturgy of the Easter Vigil

Michael Prendergast

When we celebrate the Sacraments of Initiation and the

Rite of Reception into the Full Communion of the Catholic

Church at the Great Easter Vigil we find twenty-five

headings within the liturgy of baptism. This workshop will

explore the full celebration of these rituals with

recommendations of music, processions, gesture,

proclamation, and the robust symbols of the Liturgy of

Baptism.

B-2 Liturgical Arts: Artists’ Showcase

Carol Frenning

Does your Church need a new vestment, a new icon, or

Stations of the Cross or a new altar? All of these require the

vision of an artist. In this session you will find out how to

find, hire and work with artists. A series of artists, special-

izing in art for the church using different media will

present images of their work. They will talk about how

they work with large and small faith communities.

B-3 The Rising of Generation Z

Robert Feduccia

The first wave of a new generation is graduating from

college this year and they are approaching their faith

differently from previous generations, including the

Millennials. What is speaking to them and how can we

engage this generation in the Church’s liturgical tradition?

This workshop will look at the current trends and the best

practices that are emerging for ministry with this

generation.

B-4 Liturgy and Justice: More than a “Pretty” Mass

Reverend Scott Brubaker

Liturgy is a transformative experience. Preparing our

celebrations is about more than making them aesthetically

pleasing. The rites of the Church have the potential power

to foster awareness of who we are and what we are called

by Christ to do in our world. What this means and how we

pray our rites with hearts open to discovering our role in

Gods justice will be the aim of our time.

B-5 The Assembly’s Voice: Sacred Music in the Liturgy

Peter Kolar

BILINGUAL

We come to Mass not to be passively entertained but to

participate fully, consciously, and actively in the banquet

of our Lord. It is a right and responsibility that we have as

members of the gathered Body of Christ. When the liturgy

is treated as a show or spectacle, the assembly remains

disconnected from ritual, when in fact we play a privileged

part in it. We trust our musical leadership and choirs to be

informed by the documents and to make good decisions on

our behalf from song and lyric selection to how the music

is performed and led. Only when they are truly attentive to

“the main choir” (the assembly!) can we achieve the vision

of our church in which all members of the faithful are

actively involved in the liturgy, raising our voices together

in praise to God.

B-6 Evangelization Misunderstood

Reverend Leon Strieder

Evangelization is not about winning the argument but

about winning hearts. Some folds think evangelization is

apologetics. In fact apologetics only works for the already

convinced. It helps folks confirm their faith. To reach those

who have little faith, we must be better listeners. Faith

comes through hearing says St. Paul.

C-1 RCIA: Preparing Catechumens

to Glorify the Lord by Their Lives

Timothy Johnston

Paragraph 75 of the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults

says, “The catechumenate is . . . aimed at training

[catechumens] in the Christian life.” This workshop

explores the role catechesis based on the liturgical year has

in forming and preparing catechumens to live as disciples.

C-2 The Journey Within: Contemplative Spirituality

for the Everyday Catholic

Tom Booth

We discover God “in the depths” where “streams of living

water flow” in the heart of every believer. The good news

is often better than we imagine and learning to “pray

always” is the key to a life lived in union with God. We

will learn to pray in simple and deeper ways in this work-

shop focused on spirituality and prayer. Music, teaching,

and stories filled with humor will encourage and uplift

those who attend.

C-3 Liturgical Prayer in Times of Disaster

and Disruption

Deacon Owen Cummings

“In the light of the El Paso and Dayton events and others

over recent years, the liturgy can be a source of comfort

and strength in times of chaos and conflict. When the

shootings, disasters or tragedy face us, we ‘run to church’

or have an ecumenical service. Are we praying because we

don’t want to take action or are we praying for the strength

and courage to take some action – whether it is a call to the

legislators for gun control, climate control or mental health

services, and so forth.” (Sr. Lois Paha, OP). In this session

we will look to the Liturgy of the Hours, and most espe-

cially the Psalms, as powerful God-given sources of heal-

ing response, both communally and individually.

C-4 The Gift of Praying in More than One Language

Dr. Hosffman Ospino

BILINGUAL

Tens of millions of Catholics in the United States speak and

pray in more than one language. A true catholic experi-

ence! This workshop is an invitation to appreciate better

what it means to be bilingual and affirm the gift of articu-

lating one’s faith in different languages. We will draw

insights from contemporary research in the fields of

linguistics, education, and psychology, then conclude with

practical recommendations to develop multilingual

moments of worship and prayer.

C- 5 Liturgy as Pathway from Conflict to Communion

Reverend Miguel Mariano and

Pastor Steve Springer

2017 was the 500th anniversary of the beginning of the

Reformation. In preparation for the joint observance of

that anniversary, the Catholic Church and the Lutheran

World Federation adopted a statement of mutual under-

standing and purpose, “From Conflict to Communion.”

This workshop will explore the liturgy of the eucharist and

the liturgy of the world as arenas of ecumenical dialog and

engagement. In the liturgy of the eucharist, although there

is not yet eucharistic sharing, the 20th century Liturgical

Movement has caused the diverse liturgies of the Mass to

converge, giving us a common framework and language

for dialog. In the liturgy of the world, Christians from di-

verse backgrounds can participate together in the liturgy of

the hours, rites of blessing, prayer vigils, hymn fests, and

more. Participants in this workshop will learn how both

creative liturgy and ancient liturgy offer new ways to build

ecumenical understanding and ties.

C-6 Discipleship and the Call to Ministry Brother Silas Henderson, SDS

Inspired by St. Paul’s words, “It is no longer I who live, but

Christ who lives in me,” this presentation will explore how

discipleship can and must be the foundation of our

individual ministries. Exploring the call to communion and

mission outlined in Scriptures—and explored in the US

Bishop’s Coworkers in the Vineyard of the Lord—this work-

shop will help ministers to find stability and focus as we

manage too-busy schedules and the demands of modern

parish life.

D-1 RCIA: A Church of Accompaniment is a Church on Mission Timothy Johnston

RCIA #75.2 and 75.4 states that “in Baptism, we are inti-

mately united to Christ’s divine life. This love and grace

rouse us from our pews and compels us to go forth and

share the Gospel.” In this workshop, participants will ex-

plore ways in which the community accompanies and

forms catechumens in the Christian way of life as well as

how the liturgy sends the Church out on mission to build

up God’s kingdom.

D-2 Liturgical Arts: Looking at Your Church Building with Fresh Eyes Ken Griesemer

Over time, a church building needs attention and tender

loving care. Sometimes the needs and solutions are simple

and sometimes they are more involved. Considering

principles such as noble simplicity, hospitality, inclusivity,

quality and appropriateness can help in evaluation and

planning. Ultimately, we want our places of worship to

support our liturgical and devotional prayer, and to glorify

and proclaim our generous and loving God.

D-3 Music Showcase, OCP Pedro Rubalcava and Tom Booth

D-4 Liturgy, Hospitality, and the Communion of Saints Michael Prendergast & Dr. Anne McGuire

This workshop will reflect on hospitality in liturgy, music,

and the Communion of Saints that models full, conscious

and active participation in the liturgical life of the Church.

In particular, liturgy, which is the full expression of the

Body of Christ, is manifested in holiness which is inherent

in humanity, especially evidenced in the saints and holy

people we encounter daily.

D-5 Real Presence: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow Reverend Marcus McFadin

What is the Real Presence today, in the 21st century? Medi-

eval theological terms have been around a long time. How

do they translate for us today for today’s generations and

for contemporary catechesis and mystagogy. Polls have

faults but also point us to the need for updated language.

We need to move from Eucharist as an object of adoration

(a noun) to Eucharist as a verb, a way of life.

E-1 RCIA: Preparing Rites that Foster a Sense of

Mystery and Enliven Faith

Timothy Johnston

RCIA #75.3: As “the source and summit of the Christian

life,” the liturgy is the primary place where we are formed

and transformed for mission (Catechism 1324). In this

workshop, we will discuss why intentional preparation

and celebration of the liturgical rites during the Period of

the Catechumenate are important in the overall formation

of catechumens.

E-2 Liturgical Arts:

Renovating or Building a New Place of Worship

Jim Heck

Whether you want to just ‘spruce up’ your worship space,

renovate your church to better support the liturgy or build

an entirely new structure, there are guidelines that can

help you with your project. The process for a successful

church project uses thoughtful guidelines that go beyond

the experience with space in your home or a typical com-

mercial building. Small or large projects can benefit from a

professional approach.

E-3 Entering the Mystery: Mystagogy and Praying

the Mass

Brother Silas Henderson, SDS

This presentation will explore the ancient way of prayer

known as “mystagogy” and its power to help us enter into

the Divine Mystery at the heart of the Mass and all the

Church’s liturgies. An ideal session for RCIA team mem-

bers, liturgical ministers, and catechists, this presentation

will help every Christian rediscover how mystagogy can

form and transform our experiences of the Church’s prayer

by helping us reflect more deeply on the words, symbols,

and rituals of the liturgy.

E-4 Liturgy, Hospitality,

and the Communion of Saints

Michael Prendergast and Dr. Anne McGuire

Repeat of Workshop D-4 (Thursday)

This workshop will reflect on hospitality in liturgy, music,

and the Communion of Saints that models full, conscious

and active participation in the liturgical life of the Church.

In particular, liturgy, which is the full expression of the

Body of Christ, is manifested in holiness which is inherent

in humanity, especially evidenced in the saints and holy

people we encounter daily.

E-5 The Sung Prayer of the Fifth Encuentro:

Prayer of the Heart

Pedro Rubalcava

BILINGUAL

How does our liturgy and prayer call us to live the mes-

sage of the Fifth Encuentro? This workshop will explore

some of the repertoire of music that accompanies the liv-

ing of the Fifth Encuentro and sends us forth as people of

faith. Sponsored by OCP, Inc.

E-6 Real Presence: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

Reverend Marcus McFadin

Repeat of Workshop D-5 (Thursday)

What is the Real Presence today, in the 21st century? Medi-

eval theological terms have been around a long time. How

do they translate for us today for today’s generations and

for contemporary catechesis and mystagogy. Polls has

F-1 RCIA and the Initiating Community Rita Thiron, MA

“The People of God, as represented by the local Church,

should understand and show by their concern that the ini-

tiation of adults is the responsibility of all the bap-

tized. Therefore, the community must always be fully pre-

pared in the pursuit of its apostolic vocation to give help to

those who are searching for Christ. In the various circum-

stances of daily life… all the followers of Christ have the

obligation of spreading the faith according to their abili-

ties. Hence the entire community must help the candidates

and catechumens through the process of initiation...”(#9)

How then, is each member of the parish community invit-

ed to participate in the catechumenal process? How might

the parish -- its members and its mission -- be strengthened

in turn?

F-2 Proclaiming the Word: Bringing Scripture to Life for Deacons, Catechists and Lectors Dr. Daniel Girardot

Proclaiming the Word of God for liturgical celebrations or

any group gathering in the parish is an art form that re-

quires faith formation and special training in the art of

proclamation. Come to learn practical techniques, bor-

rowed from professionals in the disciplines of theater arts,

vocal pedagogy, and scripture study, to transform your

reading into a vibrant proclamation of faith. These tech-

niques will help engage the hearts of the people of God

through effective proclamation of the Word with skill and

conviction. This session includes an applied training com-

ponent for all participants.

F-3 The Gifts of Praying in More than One Language Dr. Hosffman Ospino BILINGUAL

Repeat of Workshop C4 (Friday)

Tens of millions of Catholics in the United States speak

and pray in more than one language. A true catholic ex-

perience! This workshop is an invitation to appreciate

better what it means to be bilingual and affirm the gift of

articulating one’s faith in different languages. We will

draw insights from contemporary research in the fields of

linguistics, education, and psychology, then conclude

with practical recommendations to develop multilingual

moments of worship and prayer.

F-4 Carrying the Liturgy into your Daily Life Dr. Anne McGuire

“Go, the Mass is ended” is so unfulfilling! Discover con-

nections between liturgy and life that are inherent in what

we do and who we are. Explore new relationships that sur-

face in daily living, if we allow the liturgy to truly engage

us.

F-5 Music Showcase, GIA, Inc. Peter Kolar

F-6 The Journey Within: Contemplative Spirituality for the Everyday Catholic Tom Booth Repeat of Workshop C2 (Friday)

We discover God “in the depths” where “streams of living

water flow” in the heart of every believer. The good news

is often better than we imagine and learning to “pray

always” is the key to a life lived in union with God. We

will learn to pray in simple and deeper ways in this work-

shop focused on spirituality and prayer. Music, teaching,

and stories filled with humor will encourage and uplift

those who attend.
