The Monitor will offer regular updates throughout the congress, with commentary and photos supplied by diocesan participants, including Josue Arriola, diocesan director of the Department of Evangelization and Family Life, and Father Martin O’Reilly, pastor of Mary Mother of the Church Parish, Bordentown, and co-coordinator of the National Eucharistic Revival for the Diocese.
The Congress will see participants engaging in various Eucharistic-centered activities – workshops and talks, praise and worship, Confession, Mass, Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and more. Not unlike a World’s Fair for Catholics, pilgrims will have a variety of exhibitions to view – including exhibits on the Shroud of Turin, Eucharistic Miracles of the world compiled by Blessed Carlo Acutis, and a reliquary chapel featuring relics of several saints, including those whose names inspired the four routes of the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage: a Veil of Our Lady, St. Junipero Serra, St. Juan Diego and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton.
