          January 14-17, 2019 | St. James Cathedral, Seattle
Cathedral Ministry Conference - and the CONFERENCE OF ROMAN CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL MUSICIANS
WHAT IS THE CATHEDRAL MINISTRY CONFERENCE?
                    The Cathedral Ministry Conference (www.cathedralministry.org) is a biennial meeting of
                    those involved in ministry in Cathedrals and Basilicas throughout North America. Past
                    conferences held in Orlando, San Antonio, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Seattle, St. Augustine,
                    Milwaukee, Salt Lake City, Minneapolis/St. Paul, and Santa Fe have been great successes,
                    allowing cathedral pastors/rectors, musicians, and lay ministers to meet, interact, pray, learn,
                    and be renewed in ministry together. As in past years, the 2019 Cathedral Ministry
                    Conference will offer three stellar keynote presentations that will be of interest to all who are
                    engaged in cathedral ministry as well as workshops aimed at a variety of more particular
interests and concerns. The conference provides time for networking and fellowship with other cathedral
ministers from around the country. This is a unique opportunity to share ideas with counterparts from cities large
and small around the United States.

CONFERENCE OF ROMAN CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL MUSICIANS (CRCCM)
                 In 2019 we gather jointly with the Conference of Roman Catholic Cathedral Musicians
                 (www.crccm.org), an annual collegial gathering of musicians serving cathedral churches in the
                 United States and Canada. CRCCM both seeks and stands ready to consult with other liturgical
                 and musical organizations in the pursuit of beauty and excellence in worship, for the spiritual
                 and cultural enrichment of the community, and the greater glory of God. The 2019 Seattle
                 Conference will be a special opportunity to gather Cathedral musicians with Cathedral rectors/
                 pastors and lay ministers for a time of shared learning, collegiality, and networking.

ST. JAMES CATHEDRAL, SEATTLE
St. James Cathedral (www.stjames-cathedral.org) is the cathedral for the Archdiocese of
Seattle and the parish church for a large and diverse community of more than 2,400
families. Situated high on a hill, St. James plays both sentinel and beacon as it stands
watch over a vibrant city, calling people to prayer, challenging them to justice, enticing
them with beauty. Since its noteworthy restoration and renovation of 1994, the cathedral
has become known for its beautiful liturgies, its critically acclaimed music program, and
its extensive and innovative programs of outreach to the poor. St. James Cathedral has
also become Seattle’s ecumenical and interfaith gathering place at times of crisis and
mourning, a center for the arts, and a crossroads for civic conversation.

THE CITY OF SEATTLE
                               Seattle is the fastest growing major city in the US, and is the home of Amazon,
                               Starbucks, Microsoft, Boeing, Nordstrom, and Costco, to name a few. And Seattle
                               is an attractive city year round – even in January! In addition to the city’s famous
                               natural surroundings—mountains, lakes, and a large inland sea—and well-known
                               landmarks like the Space Needle and the Pike Place Market, there are many other
                               attractions. Seattle is a regional capital for the arts, with many museums, galleries,
                               and concert halls. In the course of the 2019 Conference, you will have ample
                               opportunities to explore one of our country’s most beautiful cities.

Cathedral Ministry Conference - and the CONFERENCE OF ROMAN CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL MUSICIANS
KEYNOTE SPEAKERS
Archbishop Wilton D. Gregory
The Hungers of a Wealthy People: The Eucharistic Bread of Life
The Celebration of the Eucharist seeks to satisfy the hungers of the human heart in
ways that no mere food can ever achieve. When we come to Mass, we discover just
how hungry we are for the things that so often go unnoticed in our daily lives –
spiritual yearnings that are far too important to be neglected or ignored.

ARCHBISHOP WILTON GREGORY has served in many leading roles in the U.S. church. In
November 2001, he was elected president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops
following three years as vice president. He currently serves as the chair of the USCCB
Committee on Divine Worship. Archbishop Gregory has written extensively on church
issues, including pastoral statements on the death penalty, euthanasia/physician-
assisted suicide and has published numerous articles on the subject of liturgy,
particularly in the African-American community.

Diana Macalintal and Nick Wagner
The Cathedral as the Mother and Model for Making Disciples
“Bishops are the chief stewards of the mysteries of God and leaders of the entire
liturgical life in the Church committed to them” (General Introduction: Christian
Initiation, 12). As “mother church” of a diocese, the Cathedral holds a vital role in
the bishop’s work of directing the way we initiate seekers into these mysteries. In this
keynote, we will explore the challenges and rewards of a Cathedral catechumenate
ministry that can serve as the diocesan model for making disciples.

NICK WAGNER and DIANA MACALINTAL are the founders and codirectors of
TeamRCIA.com, a free online resource for catechumenate ministry, which they
began in 2007 from their home in San Jose, California. TeamRCIA assists parish
ministers to convert hearts to Jesus Christ through parish initiation ministry by helping
them build thriving parishes, break free of “the way we’ve always done it,” and go
way beyond their perceived limits to be inspired and inspiring. Today TeamRCIA is a
community of over 20,000 parish ministers and volunteers throughout North
America and beyond. Through the website, live training institutes, and a series of
books published in partnership with Liturgical Press, TeamRCIA provides accessible
and effective RCIA resources that help parish teams form disciples for Christ’s
mission.

Father Dave Dwyer, CSP
Leaving the Upper Room: How the Church Needs to Reach Out
to the Millennial Generation
At Pentecost the first disciples were propelled forth by the Spirit, from the comfort and
tight-knit community of the Upper Room out into the world to evangelize. Do our
cathedral ministries embrace Pope Francis’ call to remember that “Jesus is the Lord of
risk, of the eternal ‘more,’ not the Lord of comfort, security and ease” (WYD 2016).
How can we leave our comfortable Upper Rooms (even virtually!) to make
connections with a generation that has shown that they will not come knock on our
door? Fr. Dave will speak about how we can be more proactive in reaching young
adults.

FR. DAVE DWYER, CSP is a Paulist priest and director of Busted Halo Ministries,
publisher of BustedHalo.com and YoungAdultMinistryInaBox.com, host of the
“Sacraments 101” videos and “The Busted Halo Show” every afternoon on SiriusXM
radio. He has appeared on CNN, Fox News, NBC News, Entertainment Tonight and
The Daily Show. He worked in campus ministry at the Universities of Colorado and
Texas. Prior to ordination he directed television for MTV and Comedy Central.

11:15am Workshops: Series A CHOOSE ONE OF SIX
A-1 The Power of Sacred Art, the Art of Sacred Power
     From its very beginnings the Catholic Church has engaged the sacred arts in
     the proclamation and the celebration of the faith. This workshop will offer a
     brief overview of the role art has played in the life of the church throughout
     the ages. We will then explore how the arts may assist in the building up of
     our church in the very diverse and complex world we live in today. Presenter:
     Johan Van Parys, Basilica of St. Mary, Minneapolis

A-2 The Past is Present: Sharing your Cathedral History
    This workshop explores how the stories we tell from our diocesan and
    Cathedral history can help us understand the unique charism of our local
    church and can also serve as a powerful tool for evangelization. Presenters:
    Corinna Laughlin, Director of Liturgy, St. James Cathedral; and Seth Dalby,
    Archivist, Archdiocese of Seattle.
A-3 The First Years of Cathedral Ministry
     Cathedral ministry is a unique form of pastoral ministry. This presentation,
     facilitated by two experienced pastors, will focus on the challenges and
     exciting possibilities that come with pastoring a cathedral community. The
     presenters will share some of their insights but the heart of the workshop will
     be responses to questions submitted in advance by those intending to
     participate. Presenters: Father Michael G. Ryan, Pastor, St. James Cathedral,
     Seattle; and Father John Bauer, Pastor, Basilica of St. Mary, Minneapolis.

A-4 Starting a Youth Ministry Program—from scratch!
     Youth ministry is one of the most important things we do in our parishes. Two
     experienced youth ministers share the wisdom learned from starting an inner-
     city youth ministry program from scratch, and talk about how to integrate
     service and ministry opportunities into youth ministry. Presenters: Joe Cotton
     and Curtis Leighton, St. James Cathedral, Seattle.
A-5 Faithful Citizenship: The Cathedral as Public Witness
     As Catholics, we have an obligation to advocate for the common good, yet
     many of us shy away from engaging in the political sphere. How can we speak
     the prophetic word in our polarized political environment? This workshop will
     explore ways to grow as faithful advocates. We will also look at some of the
     opportunities and challenges unique to Cathedrals in engaging in political
     advocacy. Presenter: Patty Bowman, longtime Outreach Director at St. James
     Cathedral, now director of the Intercommunity Peace and Justice Center in
     Seattle.

      of small and rural cathedrals

      and opportunities of small cathedrals. Presenters: Father Jerry Riney,
      Owensboro, KY; and Father Jerry Funke, Boise, ID.

11:00am Workshops: Series C CHOOSE ONE OF SIX
C-1   The Liturgical Environment: A Practical Workshop
      Dressing the church throughout the liturgical year supports our prayer
      and worship practices. Seasonal embellishments in our churches
      identify visually, and to all of our senses, the Paschal and Incarnational
      cycles of the Liturgical Year. This session will give a greater
      understanding of the appropriate placement, scale and symbolism of
      objects in our liturgical environment. Presenter: Carol Frenning,
      President, Association of Consultants for Liturgical Spaces.
C-2   The Rights and Wrongs of the Rite of Election
      One of the main liturgies of the diocese is the Rite of Election, which is
      the “focal point of the Church’s concern for the catechumens” (RCIA,
      121). It is one of the few annual diocesan liturgies at which people
      from every parish participate, and it is often the first experience of
      catechumens and their godparents of the bishop and the wider church.
      This liturgy can be a formative moment for discipleship, or it can be a
      confusing ritual that miscatechizes the purpose of election. We’ll
      discuss some pitfalls to avoid and ways to rethink this liturgy within the
      context of the intention of the rite. Presenter: Diana Macalintal.
C-3   Capital Campaigns: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
      In this lively panel discussion, experienced fundraisers share stories of
      capital campaign successes as well as asks that went awry. We’ll
      explore campaigns both large and small and invite participants to share
      their experiences as well. Presenters: Deacon Pierce Murphy, Executive
      Director of Stewardship and Development, Archdiocese of Seattle;
      Monsignor Robert Ritchie, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, New York City; Terri
      Ashmore, Basilica of St. Mary, Minneapolis.
C-4   Come, Follow Me: Preaching Workshop
      An opportunity for priests and deacons attending the conference to
      explore the ministry of preaching with a gifted preacher and teacher.
      Presenter: Bishop Daniel Mueggenborg, auxiliary bishop of the
      Archdiocese of Seattle. Bishop Mueggenborg is the author of Come
      Follow Me, reflections on the Sunday Gospels.
C-5   All about Alpha
      Have you thought about launching Alpha in your parish? Do you have
      questions about the program and how it fits in the Catholic or
      Cathedral setting? This panel will explore the challenges and blessings
      of undertaking Alpha in both urban and neighborhood settings.
      Presenters: Julianna Castro, St. James Cathedral; Johnny Hom, Holy
      Family Parish, Kirkland; and Cathy Rowley, Mary Queen of Peace,
      Sammamish.

   1:30pm       CRCCM WORKSHOP: Sacred Works of Brahms
                “The idea comes to me from outside of me, and is like a gift. I
                then take the idea and make it my own—that is where the skill
                lies.” An extraordinary opportunity to explore Brahms’ organ
                and sacred choral works with two gifted professors. CAROLE
                TERRY is a renowned performer and pedagogue of the organ
                and harpsichord. Especially known for her performances and
                recordings of German Romantic music, she is also an expert on
                the physiology of keyboard performance -- the subject of her
                forthcoming academic work. GEORGE BOZARTH specializes in
                19th-century studies, especially the music of Johannes Brahms
                and musical life in Boston. He is also interested in the early
                history of the piano. He was the founding Executive Director of
                the American Brahms Society, 1983–2014.

Cathedral Ministry Conference - and the CONFERENCE OF ROMAN CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL MUSICIANS
For those really willing to look and to search, there is a greatness to be discovered in a
cathedral and a whole world of opportunities to be explored. Cathedrals realize a few of
those opportunities, but only a few, and I know a cathedral will lose its soul the day it
thinks it has realized them all. Cathedrals, like so many other human enterprises, are
works in progress, unfinished symphonies. Like the God they are meant to image and
honor, they defy easy definition and they never run out of possibilities.
                                                                         Father Michael G. Ryan
                                                                     St. James Cathedral, Seattle

TESTIMONIALS
“Cathedrals are the hearts of our dioceses. Thank you for helping with our heart health.”
Monsignor Robert T. Ritchie, New York City
“Every Cathedral is unique, but at our heart and in our purpose we share a mission.
The conference is a great way to experience the diversities of Cathedrals but also
how each accomplishes the same mission.” Very Rev. Ed Steiner, Nashville
“Absolutely loved the conference. It was like we were a big family. Informative,
useful and spiritually invigorating.” Rev. Greg Finzen, Sioux City, Iowa
“An extraordinary and worthwhile educational experience in Cathedral Ministry.”
Rev. Bob Brown, Baltimore
St. James Cathedral
804 Ninth Avenue
Seattle, WA 98104
