Vatican II Course (For Lay People)
by Vic Scaravilli

This Vatican II Course is designed for lay people.

It is divided into several mini-courses. Each course, aside from the Introduction, covers one document of the Council. We will be studying three Church Constitutions and two smaller documents specifically addressed to the role of the laity: The subcourses are the Introduction, The Sacred Liturgy, Divine Revelation, The Church, The Laity and Missionary Activity.

You will need copies of the following Vatican II Documents. You can follow along online from the
