National Eucharistic Congress Statement from Bishop Andrew Cozzens

Together with the Bishops of the United States and the Vatican, the National Eucharistic Congress offers our prayers for former President Trump, and those who were killed or injured.

The National Eucharistic Congress has been planning for a safe and secure event for all attendees for the past two years. We have retained a nationally recognized security firm who has worked in close coordination with local, state, and federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies throughout. We will continue to be very attentive to security needs for all.

The National Eucharistic Congress remains, since its inception, a spiritual movement, aimed at proclaiming the love of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist who seeks to bring unity and peace to our Church, our country and our world. We feel privileged to gather in prayer at a time with Our Eucharistic Lord when our country and our world need this peace which comes only from him. We will pray for healing of all divisions in our land and an end to violence.

Our Lady, Queen of Peace, pray for us.

Bishop Andrew Cozzens, Chairman of the Board 
National Eucharistic Congress
