               Rev. John Thomas Lane SSS

Fr. Lane will review the principles of adaptation in the Order of Mass and assist in examining the rubrics of the General Instruction of the Roman Missal.  Whether the new edition of the GIRM is available or not, this workshop will look at the features or places where presiders, liturgical committee members and sacristans have choices and options within the Eucharistic liturgy.

Where do we start?  Who should we contact?  What do you say to an artist?  How do we find an artist that fits?  Can’t this wait?  Who is responsible for what?  You don’t like yellow?  What about budget, fund-raising, contracts, codes, maintenance, warranties, copyright, etc., etc., etc.,  These types of questions often needlessly hamper liturgical art committees.
