You Are Invited ...
The theme for the conference builds on the theme for the 2025 Jubilee Year of Mercy: Pilgrims of Hope as it speaks to the transformative power of the liturgical event, through sacrament and song, to change hearts and to inspire God’s people to be a Church on mission to bring the joyful proclamation of the Gospel to the world.
It is anticipated the event will attract up to 500 delegates including liturgists, musicians, clergy, cantors, choristers, lay liturgical ministers, composers, teachers, conductors, liturgy teams, campus ministers and many more…
Importantly, as a "peak body" gathering, the conference attendees will include key music and liturgy leaders and decision makers from Catholic dioceses, parishes, schools and agencies from throughout Australia and New Zealand.
