Let us give thanks to the Lord our God

The Diocesan Eucharistic Congress was a privileged time of grace for those in attendance. We gave thanks to the Lord for the blessing that he gave us, especially the gift of the Most Holy Eucharist. We celebrated Mass, the source and summit of our life. There were prayerful Eucharistic processions, inspiring speakers and good fellowship.
