You’re invited to our Eucharistic Congress!

Upon returning from a meeting of International Eucharistic Congress delegates in Ecuador in September 2023 International Eucharistic Gathering in Sept2024(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!

Thank you for Visiting Blessed Carlo!

This past weekend, a relic of Blessed Carlo Acutis, finished his Canadian visit in Ontario and is back home in Assisi. With him went the hundreds of prayer intentions that were written by people who had a chance to spend some time with Blessed Carlo.  The intentions were offered at a Mass celebrated yesterday in a chapel at Church of Santa Maria Maggiore. This is church where Blessed Carlo is buried. Fr. Patrick Salah from the Archdiocese accompanied Blessed Carlo home to Assisi and concelebrated at the Mass. 

Blessed Carlo started his tour as part of our Eucharistic Congress then made his way to the Diocese of Antigonish, the Archdiocese of Saint John’s, the Archdiocese of Toronto, and ended in the Archdiocese of Ottawa.

And in case you missed it, Msgr. Anthony Figueiredo, the priest who accompanies the relic of Blessed Carlo, presented Archbishop Dunn and the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth with our own relic of Blessed Carlo; a piece of his hair contained in a small round reliquiry.   The relic will be placed in the museum at the Saint Mary’s Cathedral Basilica and will be a special reminder of how the soon-to-be saint has inspired and blessed the people of our Archdiocese. Blessed Carlo Acutis pray for us!

Thank you to everyone who donated to assist with the costs of Blessed Carlo’s travel to and from Halifax.  Your generosity was most appreciated!
