Its name changed to The Liturgical Conference to reflect the increased interest of all Catholics and (later) Protestant denominations. The Conference is best known for its sponsorship of national Liturgical Weeks (1940-1968) and for its publications, including Homily Service (until 2010) and Liturgy.
