Catholic Charities – Year of the Family
Catholic Charities, Diocese of Camden is sponsoring individuals and families from each of the six counties served by the Diocese of Camden to attend the World Meeting of Families’ four-day theological congress. The congress, held from Tuesday, September 22 through Friday, September 25 includes sessions for both adults and youth on the theme “Love Is Our Mission: The Family Fully Alive.”
In accordance with its mission to serve and strengthen families in the Diocese of Camden, Catholic Charities is accepting applications from interested individuals and families who could benefit from the meeting, but find the cost prohibitive. The total number of tickets to be awarded will depend on interest and applicants. Catholic Charities welcomes individuals as well as couples to apply. Families with children old enough to attend the youth congress may also be awarded youth congress tickets for their child/children. Applications are available at the parish office or online at the link below. Deadline for submissions is July 31, 2015.
***Please note: These tickets are NOT tickets to see Pope Francis or attend papal events. The Pope will not be inattendance at the Theological Congress.
Catholic Charities encourages families and individuals throughout the Diocese of Camden to apply. Recipients will be chosen based on various factors including:
- Demonstrated desire to attend the Congress and understanding of its purpose.
- Ability to attend the entirety of the Congress, or a significant portion
- Financial need.
Completed applications may be sent electronically to: Joanna.Gardner@CamdenDiocese.org
