Less than one year before IEC 2008
Monday, June 25 2007
In less than a year, the 49th International Eucharistic Congress will be in full swing in the diocese of Quebec. The event will be held from 15 – 22 June 2008 and will coincide with the 400th anniversary of Quebec City.
Close to 12,000 participants from all over the world are expected to come for a week of celebrations, adoration, catechesis and cultural events. Large crowds are expected particularly the closing mass. Preceding the Congress is a theological and pastoral symposium aimed at deepening our knowledge of the Eucharistic Mystery.
