The course, which runs Jan. 21-Feb. 9, aims to offer priests an opportunity to renew the charisma received in the very places where Christ instituted the priesthood.

The Sacerdos Institute of the Regina Apostolorum Pontifical Athenaeum and the Pontifical Institute Notre Dame of Jerusalem Center have organized the course under the auspices of the Vatican Congregation for Clergy and the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples.

The program includes refresher courses in Scripture, pastoral workshops, ecumenical meetings, and guided visits to the holy places. Lectures will be given in English, Italian and Spanish with simultaneous translation.

A summer course will be held next July 15-Aug. 3.

The Notre Dame of Jerusalem Center is a religious, charitable, cultural and education presence of the Holy See in the Holy Land.
