Dear brothers,

With the approaching Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ, Corpus Christi, Bishop Sweeney asks that we begin turning our attention with focused emphasis to the Eucharistic Congress, the highpoint of the Year of the Eucharist, to be held September 22-25, 2022. Please look for the coming promotion from the Diocesan Social Media Team, and please begin to include this bulletin announcement frequently during the months ahead:

Eucharistic Congress – September 22-25, 2022

Registration Now Open

A Eucharistic Congress is a privileged moment of grace in the local church. Guiding our Congress will be Archbishop Rino Fisichella. On February 11, 2022, Pope Francis wrote these words to Archbishop Fisichella regarding the Jubilee 2025. “To you, dear Brother, I entrust responsibility for finding suitable ways for the Holy Year 2025 to be planned and celebrated with deep faith, lively hope and active charity. The Dicastery charged with promoting the new evangelization can help make this season of grace a significant stimulus to the pastoral outreach of the particular Churches which are called in these years to intensify their commitment to synodality.” Led by the power of the Holy Spirit and strengthened by our Eucharistic Lord we celebrate our unity as the Body of Christ. Join Bishop Sweeney in welcoming Archbishop Fisichella who will guide us in the pastoral plan of our Holy Father toward living the Evangelii Gaudium – the joy of the Gospel. Please take this opportunity to register at http://rcdop.org/year-of-the-eucharist

With gratitude for your cooperation, I am

Sincerely yours,

Monsignor T. Mark Condon
Vicar General and Moderator of the Curia
