Weaving Music through Liturgy

Sunday, January 23, 2005
2:30 – 5:00 pm

Music plays an essential role in the full, active and conscious participation of the assembly in worship. This workshop will walk through the four-fold ancient liturgical form—gathering, Word, Eucharist, sending—and offer creative and diverse musical suggestions that undergird and enhance the flow of this structure and deepen the prayer and worship life of the community.
