Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, California
8:00 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.
The Center for Religion and Spirituality at Loyola Marymount University and the Archdiocesan Office for Religious Education invites you to the 2009 Los Angeles Religious Education Congress Catholic Filmmakers' Showcase.
With the rise of Cinema as the new media and artistic craft of the 21st Century, the Catholic Filmmakers' Showcase was established to highlight the work of Catholic filmmakers and production companies in Los Angeles and abroad. The Showcase exhibits narrative feature lengths, shorts, documentaries, experimental films, and animation, whose thematic elements are grounded in Catholic social teaching, justice, liturgy, ministry and vocational life, morality, theology and spirituality.
The Congress in its entirety is the largest event of its kind in the United States. It has continued its original objective of offering in-service education and spiritual formation to those in catechetical and related ministries. Though the Religious Education Congress continues to serve religious educators, today it is so much more. Congress now draws in excess of 40,000 participants during this internationally acclaimed four-day event and offers more than 280 workshops covering a vast range of topics. The work of over 200 companies and organizations will be exhibited – ranging from religious art to music, and from publishing houses to educational institutions.
