WELCOME

Join us for a liturgical study weekend, where you will get a first-hand look at what it's like to attend The Liturgical Institute on our beautiful 1,000 acre campus in Mundelein, Illinois.

Participate in fun and challenging classroom lectures with Liturgical Institute faculty members. Each day will be enriched by sung Mass and chanted Liturgy of the Hours. Your room and all your meals are included in the registration fee.

Whether you’re new to the Catholic Church and want to learn more about the Sacred Liturgy, or you’ve been attending Mass your whole life and want to dig deeper, you will not want to miss this unique opportunity. 

You won’t be changed, you’ll be transfigured. 

​

WHY TRANSFIGURED?

God wants us to share in His own divine life, and so He sent His Son to bring humanity into the very life of the Trinity. He gave a pledge of this great gift at the Transfiguration, where Christ and His garments became dazzlingly white, radiant with the light of heaven.

Christ continues to plead for us at the right hand of God, asking that all of humanity share in what He shares in: the heavenly energy that makes human beings fully alive. The sacramental life of the Church, especially the Mass, is how this divine life is given to us. Going to Mass is more than mere duty. It is the eternal opportunity to be formed into the very likeness of God.

​

​

Learn more about how to receive this divine life.

Become informed. Become radiant. Be Transfigured.
