All parishes of the diocese are asked to offer their Masses this weekend for his repose, and for the comfort of those who love him.

Convergence 2024 is Carolina Bound

The 2024 Convergence Conference will be held at The Catholic Conference Center near Hickory, North Carolina from June 10-12. 

Nestled on 180 acres, the Center boasts a variety of ways to re-energize the mind, body, spirit, and soul, including easy walking trails with many reflection points cut throughout the property's woodland. 

This year, we are thrilled to welcome Bishop Kenneth Myers of Graceworks back to Convergence as our featured speaker. He will be speaking on aspects of his work, "How Christians Worship" as we continue our growth and development in the theological, practical, and spiritual sides of the celebration of Divine Worship. Expect Texas-sized stories, and profound moments of revelation as he leads us deeper in discovering covenant connections with God. 

As usual, our agenda will include updates on the state of the Communion and our Diocese, as well as opportunities to pray the Daily Office, Mass, and other devotions together. Ample opportunity will also be provided to experience the beauty of the facility grounds.
