EVENTS
Vicariate Gatherings for Women and Men Religious
We are delighted to announce that we will be hosting a series of gatherings for women and men religious with the Bishop in each of the Vicariates. These events are part of our ongoing efforts and our commitment to fostering unity, dialogue, and collaboration among our religious communities in the AOC.
We look forward to coming together for prayer, conversation and dinner throughout the year in each of the Vicariates. Your presence and participation will be invaluable as we continue to build a vibrant and supportive network among religious.
We will ask you to save the date when we finalize the schedule for these gatherings. We will be sending out more information with specific dates and details as soon as they are available.
Chicago Homicide Vigil
Notice: Although we will not be gathering in person in November to pray for all those who were murdered this past month, we encourage everyone to keep the victims and their families in their thoughts and prayers.
