Adoremus joins the Avila Institute in offering “Mystery and Mission in the Sacred Liturgy,” a series of four introductory courses on liturgical prayer and the sacraments, and taught by Adoremus Editor, Christopher Carstens. The first of these four courses, Exploring the Source and Summit, explores the life-changing encounter that we are invited to have with Christ in the Eucharist and how we can further enrich our devotion to the Lord and his profound self-gift in the liturgy. This survey of the scriptural and historical development of the Sacrament of the Eucharist will help orient us to a deeper and mystagogical encounter with the Eucharistic Christ in the prayer of the Mass. This six-week course meets live online Thursdays, 7:30–9:00 p.m. Eastern, from January 9 to February 13, 2025. Adoremus readers will receive a 25% discount and can take the course for $150. Anyone interested in participating should apply at the Avila Institute for Spiritual Formation and enter the discount code ADOREMUS to waive the application fee. Once a participant has been accepted for the course, a representative from the Avila Institute will follow up by assisting in enrollment, which includes processing the 25% discount.
