All pre-convention meetings will be open to the public. Click here for the meeting agenda.

Tuesday, September 29, 9:30 – 11 a.m.

Wednesday, September 30, 7:30 – 9 p.m.

These pre-convention meetings are an opportunity to hear from diocesan leadership about the business to be conducted at this year’s Convention.
