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!
Are you a young person? Do you know a young person? One aspect of the upcoming Eucharitic Congress we want to highlight is the pre-Congress event the Youth Night. This night is aimed specifically at youth and young adults from ages 14-35. The evening will include prayer, music, a talk on the Eucharist by Fr. Tim Divine and adoration. Oh and yes, there will be food! As an added bonus we welcome for the first time to Canada the relic of Blessed Carlo Acutis, often dubbed the Millennial saint.
The Youth Night event is free but to help our team plan well, please REGISTER . For more info on the Congress visit www.halifaxyarmouth.org/congress2024
