NAAL Awards
The North American Academy presents two awards to honor individuals who have made a significant contribution to liturgical studies or the liturgical arts.
Berakah Award
The Berakah Award has been given since the beginning of the Academy and is given every year to a member of the Academy to honor her or his work.
Diekmann Award
The Diekmann Award began in 2003. It is named in honor of the liturgical giant Benedictine Father Godfrey Diekmann of Saint John's Abbey in Collegeville Minnesota. Fr. Diekmann was a founding member of the NAAL; he died in 2002. This Award is intended to be given occasionally to persons who have made a contribution to the liturgical life of the world; normally it is given to those who are not members of the North American Academy of Liturgy.
