This May, We Reconnect

The ESCC is proud to co-host with the Office for English Pastoral Services (OEPS), a gathering to focus on Your Voice Set Change in Motion: How Do We Keep Building — Even When the Path Isn’t Clear?

This event is FREE
When: Thursday, May 22, 2025, 5 to 9 PM
Where: Congregation of Notre-Dame Motherhouse, 2330 Sherbrooke St. West, Montreal 
Parking: Free parking available on site

On November 28, 2024, the event co-hosted by the ESCC focused on Fr. Ray’s testimonial and community inclusivity and vitality. Members of our community reflected and shared on new ways of being Church together—open, hopeful, and rooted in real life.

This May, we reconnect. We keep it resourceful. We keep going.

Whether you partook in activities linked to the synodal pilgrimage, or you’re stepping in for the first time, this evening is for you. We’ll share refreshments, experiences, as well as testimonials, and engage in defining what’s next collectively.

This event is open to all who are enthusiastic about fostering a Church that listens, journeys together, and actively reaches out to bring hope to all. Whether you engage in formation, outreach, or leadership, your presence and voice are vital.

What to expect:

  • Connect & share: Enjoy an informal supper and meaningful conversations with fellow church leaders and community members.
  • Deepen our faith: Engage in prayerful reflection with Lectio Divina on John 14:23-29, focusing on hope, gratitude, and our encounter with the Holy Spirit.
  • Hear the journey: Discover how our collective voices and past gatherings have shaped our ongoing mission. We will share inspiring stories and celebrate the fruits of our efforts toward a more synodal and missional church.
  • Inspire & equip: Leave with practical tools, renewed enthusiasm, and a clearer sense of next steps to bring hope and transformation into our communities.

This event is open to all who are enthusiastic about fostering a Church that listens, journeys together, and actively reaches out to bring hope to all. Whether you engage in formation, outreach, or leadership, your presence and voice are vital.

Let us continue walking this path of hope together—because transformation begins with encounter.
