Some of our volunteers are part of the Welcome team at the Eucharistic Congress in Liverpool.

Our Eucharist in the World workshops explore the links between the Eucharist and the call for us, as Catholics, to live out love, compassion and justice in our everyday lives. These resources, plus a prayer inspired by a pastoral letter from Bishop Patrick McKinney of Nottingham are all available at cafod.org.uk/eucharist We hope you find them useful. Please do share them with your Adoremus parish representatives, or with your parishioners as part of your preparation for the Congress.
