FDLC is pleased to offer this collection of free resources to assist in your parish and diocesan preparations for the Solmenity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ.
This Liturgical Preparation Aid includes:
On June 19, 2022, the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) launched a Eucharistic Revival initiative. On June 11, 2023 the country enters a phase which will more directly impact parish celebrations and formation efforts. With this campaign, we will recommit ourselves to our Eucharistic identity and will reaffirm our faith in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. We believe that the best way to increase faith in the Eucharist is the full and authentic celebration of the Mass – the source and summit of our faith (Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, 10). Adoration of the Eucharist flows from the Mass and leads us back to it.
This booklet is one of several resources, website postings, and formation opportunities which the Federation is providing during the Eucharistic Revival.

The Office of Worship has published a Quick Guide to Wedding Masses on Fridays and Saturdays. The hope is that whoever is responsible for helping the couples select the time and date for their wedding can be aware that the selection of an evening Mass time/ particular day is impacted by the rubrics. Here is a quick reference guide as to whether the nuptial prayers and readings can be used.
Welcome to this website for the priests of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. The intent of this website is to become a place where our brother priests can find information to assist them in their priestly life and ministry. It can also be a place for the sharing of ideas and information to become more effective ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Please feel free to share your ideas and suggestions with the Ongoing Formation of Priests Committee. We can be reached by clicking HERE.

This document is the basic plan of ongoing formation for priests who count themselves among other believers but who also stand and serve in a unique way in the Church of Christ, conformed to Christ as his sacramental representatives in the presbyteral order. God invites them to transformation across their lifetime, and their formation is marked by constant elements at every stage of life. At the same time, there are specific formational challenges that emerge in particular seasons of their priestly ministry. Both the constant and the changing elements of formation are included in the basic plan.
