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 faithful of the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth are invited to pray in a particular for the upcoming Eucharistic Congress from October 17 to 20, 2024. Archbishop Dunn has invited parishes to make a special observance of the First Thursdays of every month leading up to our Congress. On this day parishes are encouraged to focus on a time to pray and preach on the gift of the Eucharist.
The Congress will be an important time in the life of our diocese where all the faithful are invited to gather to pray, learn, and reflect on the gift of the Eucharist. As we prepare for this exciting event, we invite everyone in the diocese to prayer for the success of the Congress; that the Holy Spirit will guide all our planning and stir the hearts of many of the faithful to come to the Congress.
