The National Eucharistic Pilgrimage will pass through the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux this June! All community members are invited to gather as a local church in recognition of Christ.
The 10th National Eucharistic Congress is scheduled to take place for the first time in 83 years this July in Indianapolis, Indiana. This Congress will bring thousands of Catholic pilgrims and leaders within the church together for 5 days of worship, thought, and reflection. As stated on the official website, “Every day at the Congress is designed to facilitate this life-changing encounter with Jesus, regardless of where you are on your faith journey. Attendees will select their preferred series of impact or breakout sessions, then, gathered together as one, the whole assembly will experience the powerful revival sessions in Lucas Oil Stadium each evening.”
Leading up to the National Eucharistic Congress in July will be a National Eucharistic Pilgrimage across the United States, consisting of 1,000 hosts and 4 different routes to choose from: The Marian Route (North, beginning in Minnesota), the St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Route (East, beginning in Connecticut), the St. Juan Diego Route (South, beginning in Texas), and the St. Junipero Serra Route (West, beginning in California). All routes will eventually end in Indianapolis before the conference.
