What this workshop offers

Part I: Theological Foundations | Encounter the Paschal Mystery

Discover the Easter Triduum as the heart of the Church’s life and worship. Participants will deepen their understanding of Christ’s Passion, Death, and Resurrection, exploring why the rites are celebrated, how they flow from Scripture and Tradition, and what they reveal for the faith and life of the Church.
​
Presenter: Fr. Nathan Siray, JCL
Chancellor, Diocesan Master of Ceremonies

Part II: Liturgical & Pastoral Formation | Serving with Fidelity & Communion

Strengthen participants’ understanding of the specific liturgical roles and responsibilities of each ministry during the Triduum, including the processes, resources, and preparation required for each celebration, in accordance with Paschale Solemnitatis and the General Instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM).

​The goal is to foster careful and faithful preparation so that the liturgy reveals, rather than obscures, the mystery it celebrates. Participants will also reflect on the pastoral implications of their ministry, considering how liturgical service deepens their own conversion to Christ, strengthens faith, and builds communion within the parish community.
​
Format: Participants will gather in small, facilitated liturgical ministry groups.  

“Our life is not a random chaotic series of events… but an itinerary which, from one annual celebration of His Death and Resurrection to the next, conforms us to Him.” ~ Pope Francis, Desiderio Desideravi, no. 64
