Summertime will be in full-swing by July—and that means time to head back to school—at least as far as the Liturgical Institute at the University of St. Mary of the Lake is concerned. The Institute welcomes students to its 3rd annual Transfiguration Young Adult Liturgy Conference, held this year on July 12-14. Organizers of the three-day event provide students “a first-hand look at what it’s like to attend The Liturgical Institute on our beautiful 1,000-acre campus in Mundelein, Illinois.”

As each conference day will include a sung Mass and chanted Liturgy of the Hours, and a full schedule of classes taught by Institute faculty, the main course of this feast for mind and heart focuses on all things liturgical—but there will also be room enough for some postprandial treats—as a special evening presentation “From Deserts to Desserts” provides participants with a special “liturgical” dessert tasting.

The cost of the conference ($250-$375) covers room and meals. For more information or to register, visit the conference website: www.betransfigured.com.
