2023 DOR Eucharistic Congress app for iPhone and iPad

The Diocese of Raleigh Eucharistic Congress will occur on October 21, 2023, at the Raleigh Convention Center. The day will feature a Holy Hour, keynote speakers, vendors and exhibitors, breakout sessions, and Mass. The congress is the inaugural event for the Centennial Celebration of our diocese, which was founded on December 12, 1924.

Bishop Luis Rafael Zarama will begin the day by leading a Eucharistic Holy Hour. The congress will have three tracks: English, Spanish, and Youth. Bishop Stephen Parkes of Savannah will give the English keynote. The keynote in Spanish will be delivered by Archbishop Gustavo Garcia-Siller, Archbishop of San Antonio. Speakers from The Vigil Project will provide the youth keynote.

Catholic vendors and exhibitors will be on hand to showcase religious goods, Catholic publications, and resources.

The afternoon breakout sessions include a variety of speakers from across the country who will help us to understand more and more the power of the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist and our call to be missionary disciples worldwide.

The congress will culminate with the celebration of Mass, our most significant act of Thanksgiving as a Catholic people.
