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!
What are you doing October 17-20? We hope you’re joining us for our first diocesan Eucharistic Congress! What is the a Eucharistic Congress? In short, a Eucharistic Congress is an powerful way to unite the Church, where our diocesan family of faith can gather to worship Our Lord in the Eucharist through the communal celebration of the Mass.
Along with Masses there will be a variety of opportunities to dig deeper into our understanding of the gift of the Eucharist. These types of gatherings reaffirm and re-emphasize the source and summit of our faith, putting Jesus where he belongs—at the center.
So the basic details of the Congress are:
When: October 17-20, 2024
Where: Good Shepherd Parish and Saint Mary’s Cathedral Basilica
Cost: $25 for full Congress registration
$10 for a day pass
