This in-person gathering—the first since 2017—will bring together diocesan directors of liturgy and chairpersons of liturgical commissions from across the country. This meeting offers participants a valuable and unique opportunity to engage in liturgical formation, fostering a deeper understanding of the Eucharist as the heart of Catholic worship, and equips attendees with practical tools to enhance liturgical celebrations, ensuring they are life-giving and reflective of the Church’s mission to evangelize and sanctify.

Monsignor Murphy’s expertise will provide invaluable insights and guidance. By sharing his knowledge of the Church’s liturgical traditions and contemporary directives, Monsignor Murphy will inspire participants of the meeting, both clergy and laity alike, to a renewed and deeper participation in the foretaste of the Heavenly Banquet.
Evening Prayer will be celebrated on Monday, October 27 at 7:00 PM (EDT), followed by a public lecture, at the Cathedral Basilica of Christ the King. These will be live-streamed on the Diocese of Hamilton website A summary of the meeting will be shared on the CCCB website following the event.
