Areas of Work

Liturgy

Patrimony
The word ‘Patrimony’ describes the Church’s cultural inheritance in terms of architecture, art and artefacts. 

Spirituality
The different forms of prayer or spirituality are ‘like the colours of the spectrum which all point to the pure light of God. They all start with a fundamental element of faith, so as to lead — in each case by a different gate—to the centre of the faith and devotion to God.
