This session introduces participants to some of the ritual books and prayer texts and practices employed in Catholic liturgical or pastoral settings that Christians of any tradition could find useful as providing examples or models adaptable to their own various pastoral circumstances. Expect some reference as well to liturgical art, architecture and music. Depending on the interests of each group, we may find our conversation ranging from the very practical to the deeply theological - while always richly ecumenical!

Pastors of three Hispanic churches will share what they learned from experiences implementing congregational projects related to the development of new understandings and practices of worship and preaching.
