The FDLC is pleased to provide another series of free webinars on the latest liturgical text to be released.  Each session will air live at 1:30 (eastern) and will be 75 minutes in length.  As before, they will be recorded for further viewing.  Plan now to attend and invite others to join you! Registration is now open below.

Part One: Wednesday, January 28
The Order of the Anointing of the Sick and Their Pastoral Care
Featuring Bishop Michael Woost (Chair of the BCDW) and Father Dustin Dought of the BCDW Secretariat.
All about the new liturgical text.  How does it differ from the current USA translation?  What is the same?

Part Two:  Wednesday, February 11
A Theology of the Care of the Sick
Featuring Father Michael Joncas
With Scriptural and pastoral insights, we will examine the role of the Sick within our parish community and our obligation (and privilege) to care for them.

Part Three:  Wednesday, March 4
Pastoral Issues
Featuring Ms. Tish O’Hagan (Diocese of Boise) and Msgr. Rick Hilgartner (Archdiocese of Baltimore)
A look at some practical matters of visiting the sick — including visiting a sick child, a sick adult, home visits, hospital visits, and nursing homes.  Who are the proper ministers of the rites? What can a Deacon do?  What can a lay person do?  What can only a Priest do?
