New Online Course on the Catholic Mass Offers Deep Formation in the Sacred Liturgy
Aurelio Porfiri leads international cast of contributors in a journey to the heart of Catholic worship
A new online course is now available to help Catholics rediscover the beauty, meaning, and power of the Church’s most sacred act: the Holy Mass. Titled The Catholic Mass, this innovative formation program is led by composer, author, and liturgical scholar Aurelio Porfiri, with the participation of esteemed guests including Bishop Athanasius Schneider, Abbot Philip Anderson, Dr. Edward Schaefer, Dr. Kevin Magas, Fr. Roberto Spataro, and Dr. Robert Fastiggi.
The course is a comprehensive introduction to the theology, history, spirituality, and aesthetics of the Catholic Mass, with particular attention to the richness of the Roman Rite. Through a series of 14 in-depth lessons, participants will be guided to understand not only the external structure of the liturgy but also its inner dynamism and mystical significance.
“If we want to renew the Church, we must first renew our understanding and celebration of the Holy Mass,”says Porfiri. “This course is for all who want to love the Mass more deeply and live it more fully.”
Highlights of the Course Include:
- A spiritual and theological exploration of each part of the Mass
- The role of silence, beauty, music, and sacred gestures
- Reflections on the traditional liturgy and its relevance today
- Insights from bishops, priests, theologians, musicians, and writers
- Practical guidance on how to interiorize and live the liturgyYouTube
This course is ideal for priests, seminarians, religious, liturgical ministers, catechists, educators, and laypeople who desire a deeper formation in the liturgical life of the Church.
