FOR CATHOLICS OF ALL AGES & BACKGROUNDS



REVIVAL IS IN THE AIR.

Our world is hurting. We all need healing, yet many of us are separated from the very source of our strength. Jesus Christ invites us to return to the source and summit of our faith in the celebration of the Eucharist. The Archdiocese of Milwaukee is joining bishops, dioceses, parishes, and apostolates from across the United States in a moment of National Eucharistic Revival, which intends for all Catholics to be healed, converted, formed, and unified by an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist and sent out in mission “for the life of the world.” Find out more about our local plans in the archdiocese here.


CONGRESS? 



COMING TOGETHER.

Webster's Dictionary defines "congress" as the act of coming together. Since the COVID pandemic, "the act of coming together" cannot be taken for granted. The Archdiocesan Eucharistic Congress will be a moment of coming together as Catholics, uniquely around the source of our strength: the Eucharist. Come, and join hundreds of Catholics across the Archdiocese for a day filled with opportunities to encounter the love of Jesus Christ, present to us in the Eucharist.


SOME NEEDED TIME WITH JESUS.

In the course of our day-to-day, week-to-week, month-to-month lives, we may find ourselves distant from God or in need of renewal. The Eucharistic Congress is an extraordinary opportunity to (re)ignite faith and move forward into ordinary life with renewed love for the Eucharist and desire to share the Gospel.


DEEP DIVES & BELLY LAUGHS.

If you have a heartbeat, the Eucharistic Congress is for you. Our hope is that every participant has the opportunity to profoundly encounter Jesus Christ in the sacraments, scripture, prayer, and joy-filled community of all ages and backgrounds. This is a moment to grow deeper in our relationship with God, but also enjoy the gift of Catholic community.


LOOK WHO'S TALKING.

All of the presentations for the Eucharistic Congress will engage and inspire attendees to fruitfully live out the Catholic faith. Come, and celebrate Mass with Archbishop Listecki, hear from Fr. John Burns, who is a designated National Eucharistic Preacher for the National Eucharistic Revival, among other presenters. 



Archbishop Jerome Listecki

In January 2010, Archbishop Jerome Listecki was named the 11th archbishop of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee by Pope Benedict XVI. He has faithfully led the Archdiocese of Milwaukee since that time. His Episcopal motto is the phrase "Life is Christ," from St. Paul's Letter to the Philippians (Phil 1:18-26).


Fr. John Burns

Fr. John Burns was ordained a priest of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee in 2010. He is an author and speaker for conferences, parish missions, and directs retreats throughout the country. Father has been designated by the USCCB to be a Eucharistic Preacher for the National Eucharistic Revival.
