You’re invited to our Eucharistic Congress!
Upon returning from a meeting of International Eucharistic Congress delegates in Ecuador in September 2023 (see picture), Archbishop Dunn was inspired to host a local Eucharistic Congress in the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth. There has been a practice in our diocese to host an annual Assembly of the People of God; a time to gather a diocesan family to pray, reflect, learn, and celebrate the goodness of God being witnessed across our local Church. For 2024, that the annual diocesan gathering will be a Eucharistic Congress. The focus of this gathering will be on creating an opportunity for the spiritual renewal of the people and parishes of the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth…and beyond.
Archbishop Dunn would be delighted for you to join him from October 17-20 for our first Eucharistic Congress in the Archdioceses of Halifax-Yarmouth!
The 2024 International Eucharistic Congress will be held in Quito, Ecuador, from September 8 to 15, 2024. To encourage people to attend, a pilgrimage has been organised in collaboration with Spiritours. The pilgrimage will begin on September 6 and conclude on September 16. There is also the option to extend the pilgrimage to include a four day excursion to the Galapagos Islands.
The spiritual guides for the pilgrimage will be our own Archbishop Brian Dunn and Bishop Christian Rodembourg of the Diocese of Saint-Hyacinthe, PQ. They are the Canadian bishop delegates for the international Eucharistic Congress.
