The Spiritual Exploration of Psalms: A Lenten Retreat
What are we, as music ministers, proclaiming, and how can we best do so during the holy walk of Triduum?
In this webinar we will reflect on this question and the psalms we will be proclaiming during these special liturgies. It will break open the texts of the psalms, starting with the original scripture and psalm as a whole and offer suggestions of how music ministers might engage the scripture in prayer, study, and personal reflection. This presentation is an opportunity for psalmists, proclaimers of the Word, to enrich their biblical and spiritual preparation in sharing the psalms with the community and to develop their own spiritual practices. Participants will explore ways to be a conduit for the Holy Spirit to allow for spiritual conversion.
