Liturgy and liturgical formation are as important as we make it. How do we prioritise learning about liturgy? How can we work smarter not harder? In this edition of LITed we explore some issues around learning and promote the latest formation opportunities!

"...One of the more serious temptations which stifles boldness and zeal is a defeatism, which turns us into querulous and disillusioned pessimists, sourpusses...."

Have your say

You can make your very own submission to the Plenary Council 2020. Take the short 20 minute survey to contribute to the conversation. You might like to consider mentioning liturgy and liturgical formation as a priority for the Australian Church as we plan for the future. Remember, the very first session at Vatican II was about the liturgy: the source and summit of who we are as Catholics. I wonder if that will hold true for the Plenary as well?

Pope Francis' New Letter in 10 Minutes

Pope Francis recently released a letter to the faithful, 'Gaudete et exsultate or 'Rejoice and Be Glad' from Matthew 5:12. While it doesn't say too much about liturgy, the letter is still a good read - a reminder of the disposition we must bring to our ministry.

​This film from an American Franciscan community provides a brief, ten minute overview.
