Cardinal Müller will celebrate Mass this Sunday in the Royal Basilica of San Lorenzo de El Escorial

Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller, Prefect Emeritus of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, will be in Spain this weekend to participate as a keynote speaker in the summer course organized by ISSEP Madrid in San Lorenzo de El Escorial. As part of this academic gathering, Müller will give a keynote lecture on "Christendom, Europe, and Western Civilization," in what is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated moments of the program.

The course, which will be held from July 18 to 20 at the María Cristina Royal University Center, brings together professors, intellectuals, politicians, and students under the theme of recovering the cultural and spiritual roots of Europe from a Christian perspective. The presence of Cardinal Müller, one of the world's leading voices in the defense of Catholic doctrine in the face of contemporary challenges, consolidates ISSEP as one of the leading training spaces for Hispanic thought.

In information that had not been officially communicated until now, Infovaticana announces that Cardinal Müller will celebrate Holy Mass on Sunday, July 20, at 9:00 a.m. in the Royal Basilica of San Lorenzo de El Escorial. This Sunday celebration will have strong symbolism, not only because of the doctrinal profile of the celebrant, but also because of the chosen location: a church steeped in historical and spiritual significance, the heart of the Spanish Catholic monarchy and a symbol of Hispanic heritage.

The closing Mass will not be reserved solely for course students. It will be open to all Faithful who wish to participate. The public dimension of the event thus reinforces the message that Müller himself has championed on numerous occasions: the need for the Catholic faith to have a firm presence in the cultural and political life of nations.

With this celebration, ISSEP not only closes a weekend of training, but also sends a clear message about its role in the present and future of Europe: a project in which Christian identity is not merely a theory or a vestige of the past, but a concrete present.
