Bicentennial Octave of Service
To commemorate the 200th anniversary of our Diocese, all parishes were invited to participate in the Octave of Service from September 27th, the feast day of Saint Vincent de Paul, to October 4th. An Octave of Service is a week-long opportunity for parishes to carry out various forms of outreach in their communities while living out the Gospel values of encounter and accompaniment.
