Syllabuses for the Liturgical Formation

Over the years a number of syllabuses have been prepared for different aspects of of liturgical formation. A general liturgical syllabus, Celebrating the Paschal Mystery can be delivered at a number of levels. A specific initial training programme for Church Music — Preliminary Syllabus for the Formation of Church Musicians followed. More recently a Syllabus for the Formation of Lay Liturgical Ministers has been developed which provides materials for a range of liturgical ministries. The material is provided to enable and encourage the work of diocesan liturgical commissions and other interested bodies.
