CONGAR INSTITUTE'S
COVID-19 RESPONSE
Fortunately, the Congar staff has been able to continue working remotely during the Coronavirus pandemic and the ongoing stay-at-home restrictions.
You can still reach us at:
210-341-1366 x 271 (phone) or congarinstitute@ost.edu (e-mail).
During this time, we are sharing reflections on the weekday readings from the mass. These reflections are written by our resource persons and they are called "Love in the Time of Corona". If you wish to receive them, send an e-mail message to congarinstitute@ost.edu. (Update: Click here to see the final reflection for the series, posted on June 16, 2020. Prior daily reflections remain available on Congar Institute's Facebook® page. )
We also post a 20-second meditation on Congar Institute's Facebook® page. Each weekday, these short meditations highlight a particular group of persons affected by the pandemic.

"Dioceses, deaneries and parish communities who are searching for active, practical, theologically sound training for parish leaders will find in the Congar Institute creative and resourceful consultants."

"This is not just something that sounds good on paper, but has had a real, positive impact on the day-to-day life of parishes and has really helped our leaders, particularly our priests."
