Eucharistic Congress in Auriesville
The eight Catholic dioceses of New York State are sponsoring a historic statewide Eucharistic Congress, which will be held at Our Lady of Martyrs Shrine in Auriesville, New York from October 20- 22, 2023. The congress is taking place as part of a national effort to reinvigorate devotion to the Eucharist. This revival, sponsored by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops aims to restore understanding and fidelity to the great mystery of the real presence of Jesus and to encourage all Catholics to make the Eucharist the source and summit of their faith. To provide comprehensive information and to allow people to register, the bishops have launched an easy-to-use website www.nyseucharisticcongress.org
