The Committee intends annual Ariëns lectures promoting awareness around the person and work of the priest Alphons Ariëns. Each lecture is always some aspect of the life of Ariëns on the agenda, which will also be sought with Reading to any renewal of the insights on Ariëns. The series Lectures are a series of small booklets, which could lead to a new study on Ariëns in the future.
The tradition of a Ariëns Lecture was launched in May 2001, when Drs Hub Crijns, director of national office DISK in the Jannink Museum in Enschede spoke the lecture in 2001 on the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of the departure of chaplain Ariëns from Enschede.
The annual speeches are in Dutch.
