The Office of Worship for the Diocese of St. Petersburg is established to be a resource to pastors and parish staffs in the development and evaluation of the liturgy. In collaboration with the Diocesan Liturgical Commission – advisors appointed by the Bishop – the Office of Worship has developed a variety of resources that can be used at the local level or with our assistance.

Lynch, Bishop of St. Petersburg, on November 25, 2007 as part of his three-year diocesan initiative on the Eucharist. Not only does it provide a readable theological reflection on the celebration of the Eucharist, it also includes suggestions for pastoral application and a set of study questions.
