About

The Institute sponsors summer conferences in apologetics at Santa Croce University in Rome, and also conducts guided pilgrimages to holy places in Rome and Florence..

Our conferences  explore the wisdom and clarity of early Church Fathers on key mysteries of our faith.  These are combined with discussions and guided tours of the treasures of Catholic art and architecture.  Conferences are sponsored by The Formation Foundation, in partnership with the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross. You can learn more about the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross here.

Conferences will be rich in exploring the mysteries of our faith and in the spirit of pilgrimage: learning and praying and experiencing together. Participants will visit the sites — in Rome and Florence — of the riches of liturgical art and architecture.  Engaging the senses is key to forming a Catholic imagination and cultivating a deep sense of history.


The conference is sponsored by The Formation Foundation, in partnership with the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross.
