Oakland Bishop Salvatore Cordileone and Phoenix Bishop Thomas Olmsted are co-sponsoring an international liturgical symposium next month at the Pastoral Center of the Diocese of Phoenix.

The Oct. 3-4 symposium, entitled “Council and Continuity: The Interim Missals and the Immediate Post-Conciliar Liturgical Reform,” will bring together bishops, priests, and professors from all over the world to discuss the historical development of the Mass from its origins to Sacrosanctum Concilium (1963) to the present day, interim missals, and liturgical reform in the past and in the future. Other lectures will address church architecture, living the liturgical year, the Propers of the Mass, the new Lectionary, and Anglican liturgy.

The international conference will include speakers from the University of Vienna, the University of Frieburg, Germany, the University of Katowice, Poland, and the Diocese of Melbourne, Australia, as well as several speakers from American seminaries and dioceses.

The conference opens at 11 a.m. for registration on Monday, Oct. 3, with lectures beginning the same day at 1 p.m.

Bishop Cordileone will lead Vespers and preach a homily at the end of the day.

The conference will reconvene Oct. 4 with Mass at 7:30 a.m. and will close with a panel discussion at 1 p.m., followed by a luncheon. Meals and coffee breaks are included in the conference schedule.

The general registration fee is $135. Registration for students of theology and seminarians is $100. The registration fee covers meals and symposium materials.
