SUMMARY:Summer Course: "Called to Love: Theology of the Body"
DESCRIPTION:The John Paul II Institute invites you to join an intensive course on St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body as part of the Institute’s Continuing Education Program. \nIn the course we will examine St. John Paul II’s famous “Catechesis on Human Love” by a close reading of the text and an exploration of the philosophical and biblical sources of his powerful vision. We will also delve into supplementary texts that will aid us in understanding human love in its fullness. The aim is to see the intimate connection of this human love with its Divine source\, the Trinitarian God who is Love\, and how the human being\, in his entirety\, images Him. \n \nThe course meets Monday through Friday\, July 13-17\, 9:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.\, and 1:30-3:00 p.m. Class will be taught in person and offered online simultaneously. \nIn addition to this course\, the Institute is offering a course on “Theology of the Laity”. Classes will take place Monday through Friday\, July 20-24\, 9:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.\, and 1:30-3:00 p.m. \nEach course fee is $150. To register\, please complete the online registration form. Payment can be submitted via check\, cash\, or credit card. To submit a credit card payment\, please click here. \nRegistration for the course closes Friday\, July 10. \nNumerous high schools in the Archdiocese of Washington and the Diocese of Arlington accept this course toward VCEA licensure or CEU requirements for teachers. \nFor more information\, email: information@johnpaulii.edu

SUMMARY:Summer Course: "Theology of the Laity"
DESCRIPTION:The John Paul II Institute invites you to join an intensive course on the Theology of the Laity as part of the Institute’s Continuing Education Program. \nThis one-week course offers an in-depth study of the theological foundations and mission of the laity\, centered on the words of Lumen Gentium: “The laity consecrate the world itself to God.” We will discuss topics such as the relationship of the Church and the world\, the relationship between the hierarchy and the laity and especially why the laity are essential to the salvific work of Christ in the modern world. Under the guidance of authors such as Pope John Paul II\, Cardinal Ratzinger\, Hans Urs von Balthasar and Venerable Madeleine Delbrêl\, we hope to draw to the fore the ecclesial significance of the lay vocation and thereby equip them for their mission in the world. \n \nThe course meets Monday through Friday\, July 20-24\, 9:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.\, and 1:30-3:00 p.m. Class will be taught in person and offered online simultaneously. \nIn addition to this course\, the Institute is offering a course on “Called to Love: Theology of the Body“.
