St.
Luke's began a 30-week "Lessons on Liturgy" course in January, 2017. Take a minute to pray to the Holy Spirit asking for wisdom and then read these lessons in order. As you attend Mass, keep the information in mind. We hope the Mass will become more alive and prayerful in your own life as you begin to understand the beauty and symbolism that is a part of our Service each week.
The links to each lesson are on the lower left, and are in PDF format.
Father Schmelzer is the author of these valuable articles. Before he became a priest, Father was a tenured professor at Eastern Kentucky University, so we are privileged to have him.
