Council of Major Superiors of Women Religious Eucharistic Congress to Air on CatholicTV


During the weekend of September 11-12, CatholicTV will air the Council of Major Superiors of Women Religious (CMSWR) two-day Eucharistic Congress from the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C. The Eucharistic Congress will include talks by Cardinal Justin Rigali, Episcopal Liaison for the CMSWR and Cardinal Seán O’Malley, Chair of the USCCB Committee for Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations, and Mother Mary Quentin Sheridan, Chairperson of Board of Council of Major Superiors of Women Religious and many other featured speakers and homilists.

The two-day event will consist of: celebration of the Liturgy, conferences and catechesis, Eucharistic adoration and procession, and fireworks. There is no charge for the Eucharistic Congress. The theme of this year’s Congress is “Sacrifice of Enduring Love”. The congress will explore three vocations in depth — the Priesthood, Religious Life, and Marriage. In addition to other displays, a piece of the actual tilma of St. Juan Diego will be exhibited.
