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.
