All are invited to join in prayer and Adoration during this annual Eucharistic Congress.

The annual Diocese of Venice Eucharistic Rosary Congress will be held October 3-9, 2026. This year’s theme is My spirit rejoices in God my Savior. At Parishes throughout the Diocese, the Eucharistic Rosary Congress will usually begin with the celebration of daily Mass and end with Mass. This abundance of prayer will undoubtedly draw from the Lord many graces upon our families, the Diocese, the Universal Church, the nation, and the world.
