  • Foreword

    The work of the Southwest Liturgical Conference (SWLC) can only continue through the active participation of its member dioceses.  We feel fortunate to have two representatives from most of the dioceses of Region X and Region XIII represented on the Board of Directors. Some dioceses have not been able to participate fully in recent years due to staffing shortages, but we encourage their participation even on a limited basis.

    Dioceses pay annual dues to the Southwest Liturgical Conference. This money is used to meet the goals of the Conference.

  • Support of the Annual Study Week 

    The SWLC pays the full expenses of stipend, travel, housing and food for four major speakers at each study week. This provides financial support for the host diocese and allows for the invitation of some outstanding presenters at this annual educational event.

  • Benefits to Study Week Host Diocese

    While the Study Week is intended to benefit the entire region, the hosting diocese stands to reap the greatest benefits from the conference. They have the opportunity to provide an outstanding conference within their diocesan boundaries which will attract some of the most prestigious names in liturgical work. The majority of the conference registrants would be expected to come from the hosting diocese. The opportunities for quality liturgical prayer, study and reflection and interaction with other persons in liturgical ministry can be a source of renewed enthusiasm for the work of liturgical ministers within the diocese. In addition, any profits realized from the study week are shared equally by the host diocese and the SWLC; many dioceses have realized considerable profits from drawing a large attendance to the conference and have used these funds to support other liturgical work within their diocese.

  • Support of Bishops and Board Members of Region X and Region XIII

    The SWLC Board encourages the full participation by all bishops of our region and all board members at every Study Week. Those bishops and board members who need financial assistance in attending these meetings will find the SWLC ready to assist them.

To stimulate the people of God to a full, conscious, and active participation in liturgical celebrations.

Estimular al pueblo de Dios a una participación plena, consciente y activa en las celebraciones litúrgicas.
