The course is designed to assist candidates to prepare for the distinctively Anglican issues on their ordination exams, especially those who come from a non-Anglican tradition. The course is also useful for anyone who wants a refresher in the treasures of our Anglican faith. In addition to lectures and discussions on the topics listed below, students will experience daily prayer and worship through the use of the daily offices and other liturgies of the Book of Common Prayer. The last two days of the course comprise the Liturgics Workshop. Students may take this workshop without attending the first three days of the course.

Course Costs
The cost is $450 for the entire course (Feb. 4-8), $150 for just the liturgics workshop (Feb. 7-8). There is also a non-refundable $25.00 application fee. Students are responsible for their own room, board, and transportation.
