The Secretariat for Divine Worship at the USCCB will be providing the liturgical direction and resource for this occasion. The Office of Communications of the USCCB will be providing logistical information for virtual connection for the ceremony of re-consecration itself and promoting this event by social media in the coming days, but the Archbishop wished to offer this invitation as soon as possible for planning purposes. As we prepare for this event, please have your communications staff consult and scroll the Conference social media channels (https://twitter.com/USCCB, https://www.facebook.com/usccb/, and https://www.instagram.com/usccb/?hl=en) and Catholic News Service to advance the invitation to the faithful for their participation.
Join Bishop Robert Vasa, Archbishop José H. Gomez, USCCB President, and the faithful of the United States to pray together in renewing our consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary on Friday, May 1st! The livestream will be available here on facebook at 12 PM Pacific.
Let’s pray together for Our Lady’s intercession!
