From: Deacon Dennis Dorner, Chancellor/Eucharistic Congress Steering Committee Chairman
In an effort to control costs and keep our Congress a free event, we will not be sending out personalized invitations to the many groups who annually participate in the Congress Liturgy Processions. We definitely want them to be a part of the Congress! I ask that you share this invite with the following groups who are involved in your parish community:
Knights of Columbus
Knights and Ladies of St. Peter Claver
Knights and Ladies of the Order of Malta
Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem
Once again, Catholics from the Archdiocese of Atlanta will join together in praise and worship in celebration of the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist at the 25th Eucharistic Congress. The theme this year is “Come to Me.”
The Eucharistic Congress will take place on Saturday, June 18, 2022, at the Georgia International Convention Center. I would like to recognize the vital service your organizations provide to us by inviting you to join me once again in this year’s Eucharistic Congress processions: the morning procession that opens the Congress at 8:30 a.m. and the procession for the closing Mass at 5 p.m. My request is that you would kindly wear your appropriate garb for the processions. As in the past, we have reserved space for any preparations you may need to make. Directional signs to your location will be located in the GICC. I ask that you assemble 30 minutes prior to each procession. While you are invited to process into the hall, the recession is reserved to ordained clergy only; therefore I request that you remain at your seats until the recession is completed.
The Georgia International Convention Center is located at 2000 Convention Center Concourse, College Park, GA 30337. For your convenience, the complete list of speakers is attached. Please refer to our website, www.archatl.com/congress for additional information and for directions to the Georgia International Convention Center.
