Cdl. Arinze to Keynote St. Louis Liturgical Conference

Liturgists who want to perfect what they do or Catholics who just want to better understand the Church’s liturgy will benefit from attending this April’s Gateway Liturgical Conference, organizers say.

The conference will take place Thursday-Friday, April 7-8, at the Adam’s Mark Hotel Downtown. Events will run 1:15 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday and 8 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. Friday.

This year’s keynote speaker will be the Church’s chief liturgist, Cardinal Francis Arinze. Cardinal Arinze is the prefect of the Vatican’s Congregation for Divine Worship and Discipline of Sacraments. He has been traveling around the world to share the vision of the Church as outlined in its liturgical documents and is recognized as a master communicator and theologian, according to organizers. The cardinal is participating in the St. Louis conference at the invitation of Archbishop Raymond L. Burke.
