ECENT years have seen an uptick in summer programs related to liturgy and sacred music. Stalwarts like the CMAA Colloquium remain, alongside newer events like the FSSP Sacred Music Symposium and last summer’s Wethersfield Chant Institute. Offerings have ranged from the popular and inventive “Chant Camp” for children to the international series of Sacra Liturgia conferences.
Last summer witnessed the inaugural Transfigured Young Adult Liturgy Conference. Hosted by The Liturgical Institute at the University of St. Mary of the Lake (Mundelein, IL), the 2017 event was reportedly quite successful and will be reprised in 2018.
This year’s conference is being billed as a “study weekend.” It will feature “seven fun and challenging classroom lectures,” together with sung Mass and Divine Office each day.
Faculty members for Transfigured 2018 will include:
Bishop Joseph Perry — Auxiliary Bishop of Chicago
Christopher Carstens — Editor/Publisher of Adoremus Bulletin & Liturgical Institute Faculty
Dr. Denis McNamara — Academic Director of the Liturgical Institute
Dr. Lynne Boughton —Liturgical Institute Faculty
Rev. Thomas Baima — Administrative Dean of the Liturgical Institute
Dr. Michael Foley — Associate Professor of Patristics at Baylor University
Rev. John Kartje — Rector of Mundelein Seminary & Liturgical Institute Faculty
Schedule, pricing, and further details are available on the conference website.
