The Language, Culture & Church for International Priests (LCCIP) summer program is a three-week intensive curriculum designed to acclimate priests from other nations to life and ministry in the United States. The program achieves this objective by focusing on several areas:
The parameters of the LCCIP program extend beyond the traditional classroom setting. All LCCIP participants celebrate Mass and the Liturgy of the Hours in common in the Seminary’s Holy Cross Oratory and also occasionally join the monastic community for liturgy. Masses and prayers are recorded so that the celebrants and prayer leaders can see themselves in action and focus on areas of improvement. Additionally, there are opportunities for group outings or events on campus in the evenings and on weekends.
